R.C. - I thought at first Adam was writing a suicide note and was then going to take the whole bottle of pills that were left in front of his door. (that was as intelligent as hitting him on the head).
Pinkie: - Looked like Adam had been in a fight maybe and got stabbed to me....holding his side, the back pain etc.... But when I saw the dad and little boy I too wondered if he had donated a kidney or given them the ranch. But typical Adam he was then going to use the dad to do some sort of dirty work until he saw the little boy. We may never know the outcome of that one.
Mary/Lady Bug - still think it was stupid in the storyline for Victor to bring the picture all the way to the cottage to crumple it. Or for hitting him over the head, all Sharon had to do was meet him inside, even with Victor being there there is more than one room. So stupid, half the interogation team is still in Genoa City while Victor, Nick and Sharon are already at the cottage...must be just round the corner from them all!!!
Cactus - I agree with you, The new Tucker has just fitted right in like he's been there for years. He plays the character well and shows both strength and vulnerability. I can see him and Katherine getting along.
RE: Billy's facial expressions. I loved them he was so witty and his facial expressions added to it. Then it seemed like everything he said had a cartoon facial expression to go along with it. I didn't like that. It was like he knew we liked them and started exaggerating them. I am glad he is more "normal" these days.
Have a great night everyone.

Y & R is suddenly moving along. Except for poor Janna.
I am so stuck on the acting of the Tucker character. He is gooooooood. Love him and Catherine, but we knew it was only a matter of time until Jill blew everything up. Note that the Billy Abbott actor has stopped making so many facial expressions and now could make more.
Can't we guess something is going to happen to Chance to thwart the big night with Chloe.
I have to clear this up once and for all. Pinkie, are you the same person as Sparkie? Mr. P. needs to give us his two cents worth.

The picture Victor crumpled was of him and Adam at Adam's christening.

JMHO Could Adam be dying and he is donating a part of himself and thats why the lil Boy & man are so happy? OR he is giving them the farm I dont know what it can be BUT the PTB are trying to redeem him someway ..The clunk on the head what a stupid thing where are they taking us now?????
Oh Mr P is now hooked on Y&R to funny to see him waiting for it to come on ...
Pinkie
- Tue Mar 9 16:39:26 MST 2010
Cactus and Deb: In the picture Victor crumpled up he looked much younger, so I think it was of him and Adam.
I missed a scene...phone call I couldn't avoid...what happened with the guy who came to see Adam and he thanked Adam for something? Anybody????
I like the whole build up of this story but hope it doesn't peak on Thursday/Friday and I'll have to watch it at 2:00 in the morning!!
I'm looking forward to Phyllis's enlightenment, regarding the baby. Everyone else is treating this thing as very serious, which it is....but she is acting giddy over it all, like it's a high school prank. Very annoying. I take some pleasure in realizing that Nick and Phyllis may never have that hot date they postponed.

Hi, all - Hope all is well with every one.
> Well, It looks like the saucepan is on the burner, the two tablespoons of vegetable oil (I prefer olive) is heating up, and the entree is ready for cooking. Adam's future is now at the hands of the chefs of Genoa City, with Victor as head chef, of course. Gotta wait for 2 days for the outcome though.
What do you all think of the attack plan?
I think bopping Adam on the head was a mistake. He could legally contest that in court - and win - or get so injured he develops amnesia. Then....we'll see.
Any comments?
Oh, and I think Adam was preparing a suicide note at the GCAC, but tossed it out when he got the phone call.
Has the new Heather arrived yet? She looked the same... but with red hair.

Virginia Beach, VA - Tue Mar 9 15:00:16 MST 2010
OK now that everyone should be up to date on Y&R.
I too was puzzled why Victor would crumple up the photo of him and the baby. Also, why did he have it with him - he was at the abbott cabin. (Maybe it was a photo of him & Adam not him and Faith).
And excuse me.... a dozen of them are going to be at the cabin to interogate Adam the half blind man yet the only way they could figure out how to actually get him into the cabin was to strike him over the head........DUH! Heather would be losing her job on that one. Also Raife...talk about pre-meditation.
How do so many get caught up in so much.
You have to admit Daisy plays evil really well.
Now wouldn't they just have to check with Adam's chaufer to see the log of all the places he has been and have a better idea/know what he has been up to.
Deb

Only according to pictures on the web, actually the teen Abby actor looks much older than the actor portraying the older Heather. Abby is dark, Heather is blonde. Will be interesting to see them in "reel life."
Okay, you've all seen today's show now. Someone please clue me in to Victor crumpling the picture of him and a baby.
Tomorrow; pay attention to Lily or you'll miss a major turn in events.
I think we all knew that at some point Phyllis would be responsible for Faith's future.

Mary W - "chauffed" = thrilled, honoured, touched, tickled pink,moved. We Irish tend to talk a little funny at times!
Didn't know Abbey was also being replaced.
Just thinking about all the actors we've complained about even this past year. Gosh we are very opinionated. Especially Nicki, how long she has been with the show and how much entertainment she has brought us over the years and now she is older, broader, darker and we notice it all. Wonder how she feels having given so much over the years to have us bemoan the small stuff like her hair. I really have thought she is maybe fighting some illness the past year or so, that her weight gain is due to medications would also explain why she is not on the show as much any more. Hope she is well.
Really, Heather shows up giving Adam the bag of pain killers that was left outside his door??????
Deb
- Tue Mar 9 13:07:27 MST 2010
I think Phyllis may regret all her digging up dirt on Adam, when it all comes out about Ashley's baby really being Nick and Sharon's. That will bring them together again. Just wait and see!! She's not that good a person that she would want all of that to come out. Of course, she's not supposed to know about that part.
Didn't know they are going to replace Heather. Ok, with me. Have never liked her.
I'm ready for someone to konk Daisy over the head. She is the epitome (sp?) of evil. It seems like Jana could have given Kevin a clue of some kind while she was talking to him. Something only they would know, to clue him in. I think that Ryder will end up letting Jana go.

MaryW: I think Cain only lied once, posing as Phillip which he did as a favor to Phillip. Everybody on the show lies: Chloe lied about the father of her baby, as did Sharon...Nick is lying about how they got Jabot, in his case also a crime....too many lies to count. So, I wouldn't call Cain deceitful. He's probably been more honest than most.
Strange about the ages of the new actresses. It seems that Heather would be way, way older than Abbie. Heather is a prosecutor and Abbie is a high school student. The Heather actress must look really, really old!! I'm not familiar with either.

On the heels of Eden Riegel’s recast as Heather this past week, TV Guide Magazine announced Saturday that Emmy-nominated Marcy Rylan will assume the role of Victor Newman’s daughter, Abby Carlton sometime in May. At a Guiding Light event this past weekend, Rylan was overheard saying she’s a tad nervous about the Internet complaints regarding SORASing Abby, but was excited to be back working again.
Whaaaaaaaaaaat next???????!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, folks.
Seeing how you asked each other for NC's recipies, then reading the corn bread recipe was really delightful. "That's the one!" Mary said.
In addition, reading how you all converse with each other is just terrific. "Warms the cockles of my heart." someone once said.
Well, that aside;
Y&R today I didn't see, but heard that Victor and Jack are consorting to bring Adam down, with Jack as pres of Jabot.(again)
Spreaking of Adam : Did he really break into tears when Sharon had him leave the room? As I said once, his guilt is gonna eat him up. Oh, and both women know there's only one child? The fur will fly when the truth is out, no? (She's MINE! No, she's mine! ARRGH!)
Why is Jena asking people not to search for her? That must be Daisy's doing. What kind of health is Jena in? And is Ryder softening to her needs?
Well, I'd like to see the hiss and spit tomorrow.
Tomorrow, gang.

New Heather looks NOTHING like this Heather. New one, Eden Reigle, not sure about last name has been on and off AMC for years and years. She was a busy child actor and sings and dances etc etc. She's not too tall and has dark hair. I think everyone liked her on AMC. Maybe Old Heather got a better gig? I hope so.
MaryBeth
- Mon Mar 8 17:29:09 MST 2010
Don & Bridget: I believe that Daisy told Jana that if Kevin doesn't back off, they will do him harm. So, Jana has been trying to get him to back off. But yeah, I wanted her to yell something too.
I'm still perplexed why Ashley never mentions her own childbirth experiences. After all, she was noticing during her "pregnancy" that things weren't right, but was always reassured by Dr. Taylor. So now, doesn't she question what he was telling her. Weird....
I like the low key characters like Cane, Mac, Heather. In real life people are all different and some are less emotional than others.

Hi gang,
We thought Paul's hairpiece looked bad today. He has worn much better ones before. Wondering why Jenna didn't just yell out ,"Help me" when she was talking on the phone today. Hope that photo of Lauren & Paul doesn't cause any problems for Mike & Lauren.
Loki.. good to see your post, how have you been.
Beautiful day here today, 60 degrees, hope thewarm weather isn't far behind.
Take care,

Connecticut - Mon Mar 8 15:05:42 MST 2010
Deb - I am with you. I have never warmed up to the character of Cane. He must have a personality, but it never shows through his facial expressions.
It always amuses me how the powers that be at Y & R take months/years to figure out a character isn't working and then replace them. Why don't they spend more time testing them out with the other actors prior to hiring?
On tomorrow's show, why does Victor rip up a picture of Faith? What did I miss?
Cactus
- Mon Mar 8 15:02:32 MST 2010
If I was the actor playing Heather - I would be pissed, IF they replaced me... Does that mean that they need a gal that looks more like April? I agree that this current Heather should make big $$ doing hair ads!

OH dear, Lauren and Paul....they were sooooo hot together a way back when. They really have chemistry and kiss so passionately. Interesting that Mac and Daisy had on the same color in the bar. Stylists don't usually do that.
MaryBeth
- Mon Mar 8 11:32:45 MST 2010
There is a God, the mummies are putting two and two together - unfortunately there is only one baby....unless Lilly gives up one of her twins!! (might have to fight Mac on that one).
Austrailians -- Oh I love them too. Lots of family there and some friends here, love the accent as well...in fact only Aussie I don't like is Cain. I think it is because he was such a nice personality at first but his character now is so deceitful and he loves to rub it into Billy that he stole his family.... sorry, not my cup of tea.
It really is special that so many have joined in the saddness of Nurse Connie's sudden death. She would be chauffed at being so highly thought of by all.
Don't mind the Heather character being changed although she has grown on me a bit.
The Daisy and Ryder show is a bit monotonously repetitive in regards storylines.....mommy dearest should just show up and get this show wrapped up.
Hope baby things move along fast next week.
What has Adam done now? is he out buying another baby to give to Sharon??

2 Cups of Self Rising cornmeal
(I use Three Rivers Brand here)
1/4 Cup Self Rising Flour
(White Lily's Brand here)
1 Large Egg
1 Pack of Sweet and Low
or 1/2 Teasspoon of sugar
Tap Water - I add a little at a time to make the texture of a cake mix, proably about 1-1.5 cups. You want to make sure you mix very well. You can not over beat your mixture.
Spray a 8" iron skillet with Pam. Pour mixture in.
Heat oven and cook at 425� for about 25-35 minutes.
Turn out on plate and butter.
I cut like a pie and makes 8 good slices.
I like it when it first comes out of the oven with lot's of butter...mmmmm
Also good to use for stuffing or to crumbled up in cold milk ...mmmmm
Some people perfer to use milk or buttermilk instead of tap water.
Secret is to have a hot oven....enjoy !

Wow, I think we've heard from just about everyone who has ever been in the chatbook regarding Nurse Connie. All the regs, the "originals"....I think NC would have been so flattered that everyone came on to post in her honor.
I wish there was Nurse Connie cookbook, like the Julia Child one; I would make every recipe!! Especially the ones with cabbage, I've never heard cabbage sound so good as when she described how she was making it.

> Thank you Mary Maine.

MaryB: no matter how many things I'd stuff in my carry-on, I would be sure to forget important stuff, like my glasses, my root-boost, and my inhalor. (But I would not forget my sugar-free cookies!)
re Y&R: I guess we have to be very forgiving of the holes in the storyline and the sometimes bad acting (like Chance and Chloe as they lamely dove for cover from that phantom car'. LOL). But I would agree that the Patti/Emily story in totally unbelievable, time & time again. What?? no one sees the slashed pill-stuffed mattress??
She's a raving lunatic in a padded cell, but left alone long enough to drug Emily, BLEACH her hair, and swap clothes with herP Puhleeze.
And BTW just because they have the same Face, Jack doesn't notice differences in their hands, feet, tatas etc etc?? This kind of writing is just toooo lame to forgive & forget.
What HAS become of Nikki? Did she just come back for those few shows as a means of getting Victor back in the story?? I sure rather see more of her and less of Victor ----especially when he talks while eating. eeuuu. It's like he's chewing his cud.

Loki: Your last line reminded me of a line from a poem: "Life is short but love is long". Can't remember who wrote it...Tennyson or Longfellow...one of them. Do you know??
Emily should jump at the chance to go home with Paul. Anything to get out of the hospital and not risk an insane asylum.
Phyllis does act crazy. She's down right giddy over every bit of evidence regarding Adam. She will be taking things a bit more seriously very soon...LOL! So Summer finds a piece of bloody cloth and Phyllis thinks it's okay to wash it and let her play with it???? My daughter, when she was little, would pick up all sorts of things from the street when my back was turned. One time she was walking around with a comb she had found....major EEEEEUUUUUWWW!!! This was before disenfectant wipes. I always have some with me now, when I'm with my granddaughter.
Victor cracks me up. He is constantly threatening people yet when HE gets threatened he's soooo indignant!! His response "don't you ever threaten me again...." WAS a threat!!

Jean, yes Sabrina and Adam did meet, in fact he lived at the ranch with her and Victor for awhile and since Victor and Nick were having problems Victor asked Adam to be his bestman. When Sabrina's mother showed up and started videoing the wedding it was Adam who sent her packing with a one way ticket.

It was with great sadness that I read of Nurse Connie's passing.
Jean - My heart goes out to you, as it does to Toots and Mary/Fireman, and all others for whom she was a real-time friend, with visits and phone calls. May your healing be as easy as possible for you.
May the Chat Room only get stronger and more active, in Jeanne and Connie's names. And in honor of "our" Zach, who has kept it going all this time.
When my marriage went south, Connie, Jeanne and a handful of others called, and called again, and said I could call them anytime. It was then that our lovely Couch revealed her identity to me. Others wrote and emailed just as consistently. But I bring up Connie and Jeanne because of their passing.
I had necrotizing fasciitis some years back. Connie confirmed the clinical protocol, reassuring me that I was receiving the correct surgery and antibiotics. I tell you, she knew more than most clinicians.
So much to tell about Connie. She was so devoted to her Charlie and her children and their spouses, and their beautiful grandchildren. She loved her garden. She made it real for me. I loved reading about what she was making for dinner on any night.
It was good to see LaKing's and Coug's posts. I hope more of those who joined near the beginning of this Website check in. One does worry.
My sympathies to her family. And to Connie:
Life is short, my friend. See you soon.

The Patti/Emily story has so many holes it's hard to know where to start. Aren't there patients out there waiting for their Dr. Emily? Didn't she have an office she practiced out of? There are a million ways the real Emily could prove who she is, if she ever gets a chance to speak.
Have a good weekend everyone. Our thoughts and prayer are still with Connie's family.

Alberta Canada - Fri Mar 5 15:30:20 MST 2010
It's odd with Ashley and all the talk of Dr. Taylor and Sharon's child birth experience, that she, Ashley, never even mentions her own experience. You'd think she would at least acknowledge that Adam had delivered the "baby". With her memory coming back, why doesn't she remember that the "baby" never kicked or her after birth experience.
Isn't a detective suppose to have a sixth sense? Paul doesn't seem to even have full function of his five senses!!! He is suppose to have a suspicious nature. He could have at least asked "Emily" a few questions just out of curiosity, which he is also suppose to have.
What else can I complain about. Paul and Lauren...by soap standards, when people are upset they tend to have sex with almost anyone. Add alcohol and it's a sure thing. Like on B&B right now, Bridget and Owen. I can only speak for myself, but when I'm upset, sex, especially inappropriate sex, is the last thing on my mind.
I love Cain. I love all Australians. I've never met one that wasn't unusually sweet and kind. I love the accent.
I only watch AI hit or miss. I love Casey and Siobhan, in general it's not a great crowd. Didi is just horrible. I don't know how she even got on. She should have gone before any that went last night...although they were not great either, they were much better than her.

MaryB - Suitcase would have a pup tent, blanket, flashlight, extra batteries. Food - cans of spam, deviled ham, crackers, can of beans, soup. Chips for a snack. (can opener of course) Clothes shorts, T's, undies, flip flops I'm set.
American Idol - I think most of them should just go home and get another job, or a singing instructer. Season 5, and 8, these guys wouldn't make the audition up against those guys.
Later - and good weekend.

Pinkie: I thought the cloth was a lot LARGER when Adam showed it to Ashley!
Y & R just had to mess with Lauren and Michael, didn't they? Heaven forbid there is one couple in G.C. that has a happy marriage.
What will it take for Ashley to recognize that she was not pregnant and didn't give birth? Maybe she should look for her own records.

Michelle already has the baby here is the news
The daytime baby boom continues as the stork has paid a visit to another star of The Young and the Restless. Michelle Stafford (Phyllis Summers) is a brand new mom. The Emmy-winning actress welcomed Natalia Scout Lee Stafford on Monday, December 21.
People magazine reports that Stafford's little one, born via surrogate, weighed in at 8 lbs., 3 oz.

Jean - Lance rings a bell... remember being horrified by that storyline, like you lived it with them, now I seem to analyze and prophesy the storylines. Still watch thoug after all these years.
Pinkie - I thought I'd missed something too with the car running them over. Laughed that the car they were standing against didn't have a dent.
Lady Bug - Gosh, you really hate Jill, it came across loud and clear. I feel that way about Adam and Cain. Oh my Lord, I can't stomach Cain...... sweet talking, family stealing, illegal, slimely, sleekly son of an Austrialian. Please, Please put him on a ship.
R.C. - re: Tucker, all this bull about his painting for songs. Excuse me....but if he had a painting worth millions, and was a nothing nobody - where did he get the painting. I know, Brad gave it to him after stealing it back from the Gestapo for safe keeping. Doesn't make sense he has million dollar pictures and no conections to get his bands off the ground.
Mary Beth - I too have always liked Nickii from she was the vulnerable pole dancer to now. She was always so vivacious, spunky a real survivor and yet held an innocence. Now she is so stuffy and matronly....see what happens when you marry the wrong man ...so many times!
Emily deserves a soap award for her portrayal of both characters. Much as it's a repetitive thing on the Y&R (2 for 1) she brings a whole new life to it. Good for her. I just love that bringing Kyle to see Jack was the wedding present. Shame, Shame on Jack though for not being involved in his son's life.

Haley on Idol is from FOrt Collins, where I live. There's something about her in the news every day. I never thought she was Idol material .... yet. Her voice needs much more coaching.
I'm also wondering about the girl with dreds. Just don't get white girl dreds.(I just about gag when I see waitperson with them..we are a university town with lots of diversity)
I would be so sad if Tucker is shining Kay on. He's gonna be real upset when the story breaks.
IS there going to be some twist in the storyline about Phylly trying so hard to put Adam on the cutting room floor?I think it's rather expected that Sharon and Nick will be much closer with Faith/mama disclosure, so that wouldn't be a twist. Someone said Phylly will have to take a break with her surrogate twins on the way. IS there a story there? Will she take her daughter with her on her get-away?
Nikki isn't doing much time on the screen. Lol agree about the comment she looks sausagesque in her clothes. It's too bad. I love Nikki and her pouty mouth is sweet when she smiles.Ageing isn't easy in the public eye, I get that.

I also liked the dream show. It was different. I don't know how Adam managed to keep repeating "peeled grapes" with a straight face. Can you actally order peeled grapes at a restaurant???
I hate Jill. She is mean and angry all the time, a grown woman pining after the love of her non-mother, selfish b*tch! I hope Katherine never forgives her.
MaryB: What I would take to a lush, tropical island: pictures of my sweetie girl, that would keep me happy indefinitely, t-shirts and shorts, undies, a pair of sweats, socks, comfy tennies, hat, blanket, toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, soap, excedrin, neosporin, bandaids, matches, a knife and a hatchet, fork, spoon, cup and plate, fishing hooks and line, lots of nuts and dried fruits, peanut butter and crackers, vitamins, roll of TP, small frying pan, a big, fat paperback book, journal and pen, camera, ipod.

This is what it takes to make you put the screws to a mother and son? I'm convinced; I think Jill is IN LOVE with Katherine! Can't blame her, that makes two of us But really!! If she wanted a hug too, all she had to do was waltz back in there and get one!! ....Did ya'll see Patti acting out at the end there? Hahahahaha, I can't wait to see that.

> Victor's concern for Ashley is touching. Nick is correct....Adam sought the weakest link and used that for his ends ; that being Victor's promise to protect Adam - the ace in the hole. Whatever Adam did or said he knew he had Victor's protection - till now.

I must be more desperate than the rest of you for Y&R to move on because I actually was OK with the dream scene. What miffs me is that they didn't continue the revelations. I swear if the have Adam move on without the truth of the baby coming out I'll nover watch again.......for a week or so!
I like Tucker, Like Emily as actors, both doing a good job and seem to have slipped into acceptance with viewers and other cast better than some others have in the past.
Hate that Jill will again betray Katherine.
Billy needs to not work with his mother.
Love Chole and she is the best Y&R mum.
Phyllis just pi--es me off, she is such an evil instigator and her mouth contortions just disgust me. She is like an immature teen gang member constantly spouting off and never knowing when to shut up.
I have always loved Nicki but the past year or so she seems more like a stuffed turkey with her la de da walk and facial expressions. I also don't like the side of her personality that couldn't get Ashley off the ranch quick enough. She wanted it when her and Victor got divorced...what's good for the goose is good for the gander or is that turkey!.

Hi Rosebud. Glad you're doing better.Jean & Mary B: That's what I meant to say about the "Photo Album", that there are no longer any of our Adult Photos...or atleast some of us sure can't get them.
Re The Dreams show yesterday. I liked it. It did what it set out to do and that was to remind us all of all the turmoil and fears and heartache that Sharon and Ashley have been throuh -due to ADAM! Neither one is totally over the effects of it all, and my never be.
So I think this was a good lead-in show to the Wrap-Up of this whole ghastly Adam Storyline.

Still, if Adam spills beans on his connection in the Newman/Tucker affair, Adam still goes down for conspiracy. I think he'll book out of town to Europe, change his name, his employment status, the works. Maybe the last we see of him 'till Paul finds him months later. Y'all guess the rest. What d'yall think?

Mary: Thanks for the info.
Chris: Interesting ideas except...I think Tucker is a very likable character. He's just your typical businessman, no better or worse than anyone else. He's not evil like Adam.
If they bring back Adam to take over for Victor, if Victor retires, I hope they change actors. Maybe bring back the previous one. Maybe they can have him wake up in Kansas screaming and Hope comes to his bedroom and he tells her of a horrible nightmare he just had where she dies, Victor takes him to Genoa City......
Ashley does "crazy" so well. I guess we'll see a lot of that when she loses Faith.
A Tribute to Taters
Taters are on my top five list of favorite foods. When I make taters, I make ONLY taters so I can eat a lot without guilt. I like taters mashed, fried, scalloped, au gratined, baked, just plain old boiled, potato salad, regular and german, hash browns, home fries, french fried, potato chips, shoe strings, potato pancakes or latkes, perogis...that's about it.

Hi, Cactus. Adam and Tucker are set to crash and burn at the same time. Consider this twist: Adam being the weasel he is, in the right place at the right time and Tucker being as vindictive as he is realizes that he can either go down without a fight, or go down with one last punch in the face to Victor, K, Jill, Billy, everybody! I think if not "seduced" into it by Adam, he'll knowingly give everything over to him. The authorities will rip through it anyway and he'll lose. Unless it's in someone else's hands, someone who'd gladly step on K to hurt Victor.I don't want that. Somehow K should get hers back, but still Adam Unlimited is too tasty a notion for me to abandon. It would rock Geno City to the core and oh, the sick sadism of all his wronged parties having to try their hand at retribution against such a nouveau riche monstrosity.
I think this because both characters seem doomed. If Adam gets busted - over. If Tucker gets turned in - over. This way Adam stays and boring old Tucker goes. :D
Chris Sheets

I think when Adam realizes the jig is up he will go out in flames by revealing Victor used him as a mole. Now that would be good.
Cactus
- Wed Mar 3 17:18:47 MST 2010
I still say Adam is going to get control of Tucker's holdings and pose a legitimate threat to Victor's empire. That would be the only way around all of his misdeeds: power and bucket loads of cash. I'd like that. Victor hasn't had a genuinely creepy rival since Walter and that was a mismatch, lol. Victor killed him with a scenic boat ride.
There is Jack, but that's GETTING OLD. I think Patti should whip him up a mind meld and turn him into her drooling Jeffrey. :) What better way to spank Victor: Adam in a position of power, Victoria with Billy, and his good son Nick too busy being tug of warred between Sharon and Phylis to care?
Where had Adam been? I bet busy setting the real trap on Tucker, which Billy and Jill will soon find out that their card has already been played by Adam! It would be delicious. Sorry, I do this over bad guys. I cried when Godzilla got 86'd in the American version. I was rooting for her and I'm rooting for Adam. Get them Lazy Eye! P.S. Sharon's chest is what really stole the show today. Fabulous!

Since someone asked, I guess I can say that the Adam character is leaving the show and has already written about his exit. No surprise, eventually he is going to be exposed and, what then? Jail, or leaving the country?
There was so much in the dream sequence that I didn't get and, most of all, the following day none of it seems to have affected either woman.
Tucker and Catherine play off each other so well. Great actors, both.

I like Patti's acting! Home girl is working the hell out of those two parts ya'll! She makes everyone look bad in my opinion; they need to step up their game if they wanna shine through. Even Phylis fizzles around her sometime. Adam has a good look, but his acting is the weakest. Today's episode could have been a really powerful episode, but his work brought it down a notch. The others act him into a corner often. I remember Patti's flashback episode and the story arc that followed her, superb. She should show Adam how to carry a whole episode. And he'd be wise to listen, she might hurt him, lol.

Whoever said it...I agree...I hate that the budding new relationship between Tucker and Katherine will be hurt by a misunderstanding. I don't get why Cane gave it away.
I like Billy's acting and it seems that he has toned it down a notch. There are many unbelievable things we have to accept, they come a go. But to keep up this thing where Billy is doing "gotcha" journalism for a fashion magazine insults our intelligence. I could see a few items inside the magazine...but front page???? And who even knows the names of the owners of huge corporations and who cares what they do???
"The Bachelor": I think Jake is a nice guy too...actually, too nice. He hasn't had a chance to be a "bad boy". He probably hasn't had really hot sex and allowed his "lower regions" to make his decision. Vienna looked really good at the proposal (I'm sure she had professional help getting ready) but at the after show she looked so cheap and tacky. The hot pink dress was so ugly and her hair wasn't smooth and shiny like before, it was too blonde and dry and damaged looking. Ali, by comparison, looked so classy...even Tenley looked classy. He said that the tabloid stuff wasn't true...but, topless pictures don't lie. I think a part of him wants that playboy centerfold experience. It'll last as long as they are in the spot light...as long as he remains on DWTS. Three months of "real life" and I think it will be over.
Cactus: You may know this. Years ago driving through Quebec I saw these things on everyone's lawn. They were made of wood, looked like two benches facing each other with a table between them, the whole thing was on a platform which could swing. They had one at a motel we stayed at and I loved it. I know it has a name but can't remember.

Cactus ITA about the closing ceremonies--I'm wondering if what they were going for was intentional campy to show how Canadians can have fun and laugh and have the ability to laugh at themselves? (I was laughing during it!) I still want to move to Canada, less violence there!
Cactus what can I say about the Bachelor. I still think Jake is a nice guy, I just think he thought that maybe what he'd been doing up until now wasn't working and he wanted to try a different kind of girl. By his own admission he picked someone that was out of his comfort zone; in other words, maybe before the show in real life he would have dated someone like Tenley. But he just wasn't as hot for Tenley as he was Vienna. Vienna's pretty immature, though, will be interesting to see if they make it.
So tragic about Marie Osmond's son, what is the world coming to? Is it just me or are currently having a wave of tragedy hitting us from all angles?

Friendships made in this room are very real, very heartfelt. I've been coming in here since sometime in 1998 and several others still in here came in about that time too. And some of us drift in and out, due to real-life constrictions and complications.
When I first 'joined in', we had a Live-Chat link where we could all converse at once -each one having chosen a different color of Type.
Usually we were in there around 5-6 pm EST. this was Couch's (aka couch potato, aka Jeanne Chappe) site, but many did not know that for years - if ever.
She was always in the live-chat and a truly unique, funny, wry & dry character. One of a kind, and a treasure. When I was very ill and hospitalized on several occasions, she'd call me at home and in the hospital, send me e-mails and cards. A very caring person (as are and were several others in here, in my personal experience.)
Occasionally we would have spontaneous 'fantasy events', in the live-chat or even in the Chatbook. ex: we had a few pool parties where the pool was filled with green jell-o. We would derscribe our
chosen attire for the event, and each bring some oddball food and of course many beverages. Couch's favorite was always Old Turkey B.
We also had a fantasy bus trip to -cnza't remember where - but we all got picked up by the side of the highway, en route, and we all brought food, amusements, WHatever, alongfor the ride. Absolutely hilarious and exhilirating fun for all. (Right???)
Couch too quite suddenly passed away after a very short illness, a few years ago. Of course we were all stunned and bereft then too.
She has been irreplaceable. But her kind husband came on, and said he would continue to maintain this chatbook, for us all, and in Couch's memory!

Hello all. I just retired and my wife got me hooked on the Y&R. I swore I'd never watch a "Soap" and now I need a 12 step program. There are two issues that are driving me nuts. One is the baby situation, it just isn't right and makes me feel uneasy, the other is the Patti Cake (gag) and Dr. P situation. It is just too ridiculous to think that Jack, someone who has been intimate with both of them couldn't tell the difference? Oh well, that's my two cents worth.

Don't you see the mothers looks coming from mac these last few times....there will be trouble in paradise. At least they won't have to solve the problem like Solomen....cutting the baby in two...Ha, Ha. theres twins!!!
Time to wrap up Daisy & Ryder and definately ADAM.
Why is no-one yet asking Did Adam murder Skye....me thinks so.
Looking forward to this weeks revelations!!!!

Mary, I understand about internet friends. Hey, this internet is real life, albeit somewhat removed...but it's Life Lite. You'll still grieve if a person dies or shuts down communication.
As for the update: Cain is jailed for being an illegal alien. Lilly and her father are patching things up; Malcolm is less tightly wound in comparison to Neal, but after that crap Neal pulled with Karen and Tyra, let's face it, he lost a lot of his luster on that one. In other words, he should relax.
Kay showed Tucker his insect reflection and it gentled him down some.I think seeing her as a fierce and capable opponent lifted the cloud of disdain and overconfidence he had toward her. By seeing her as the amazing business woman she is, he could also allow himself to consider her other merits like her compassion, love, spirit, and willingness to share it all with him.
Jill was jilted by Tucker and wants blood. She took up ranks with Billy and they are digging. Their efforts may become fruitful because Billy used Cain's love for Jill to obtain a crucial clue pertaining to K's Sword of Damocles.
Billy and Victoria are "horse playing", nothing going to come from it. I hope! Maybe they feel like the Abbot/Newman feud is superfluous, which is like saying the feud between cats and dogs is, but a twosome can dream.
PATTI and Emily! OMG....I haven't got the words.
Jenna was asportared by the twins from hell to an abandoned zoo somewhere. So far, Daisy has dressed up like Jenna, left damning evidence of an affair in a Chicago Hotel Room, sent Kevin a doctored recording of Jenna refusing a reunion, and muscled Jenna into writing a break -up note to Kevin. Jenna is shaken, but is confident that Kevin will never believe these tricks and not stop looking for her.
Something is seriously wrong with Lauren and our Jackal of all Trades, Daisy, may be behind it. It's only not her fault if that was Vitamin C she dripped into Lauren's drink today!

Looking at Monday's daily updates, I noticed Patty has got to slip up on her persona of Jack's beloved Emily, who's life apparently hangs in the balance. Writers should see to this, lest Jack spends his life with the fixated woman who tried to kill him once (Y'all know the story better than I)
Does Daisy want to replace Jena as Kevin's love interest? We know Kevin wont fall for it...he'll take a fit for sure. And then, what of Ryder? (sorry for the conjuction)
Do any of you think Billy and Victoria will pair up?

rc, some people I know think belonging to a soap opera chat is something to grin about, but I have never really cared what they thought. I have been on this chat since we got our first computer about 14 years ago (?) and I have found many friends. They are kind of like pen pals that many people used to have. You may never meet, talk on the phone, or even see their face in a photo, but like a character in a book your mind gives you a picture of your friend and you love what the person inside is about. Everyone gets to know everyone on an equal basis, the good, the bad, and the ugly, and to overlook the points that we all have that are not perfect, and if we are lucky enough to exchange phone numbers, or addresses, or pictures we get to know the sound of each other's laugh, voice,etc. Connie was one of these such people and Betty Boop was another that we got to know and that we loved. We still have Betty Boop's email on our list, we just can't bring ourselves to erase it and Connie's will stay there also.

Ladybug - I'm with you ending the Daisy/Ryder thing.
Looks more like an old zoo that Jena is locked up in.
Cactus - I'm glad to hear about the dreams, good way to move things along and renew some "forgotten" memories. Like to see Cassie back.
Loved that Emily woke up and screamed. Wouldn't she just tell Paul something that only the two of them discussed or start using medical jargon to show she is the real Doc.
Like how Pattycake is falling apart at times. IMO she is the best person Y&R has had in a long time playing two rolls. Jack must be a real dingbat though.
Like the new Tucker.
Gotta go now and watch today's episode.

RC: Online friends are just real friends that live in different places. I found that out with Nurse Connie.
For those interested, *In a special stand alone episode on Wednesday, March 3 – Ashley and Sharon have separate terrifying dreams that lead to a shocking revelation.*
And one of our leading actors is leaving the show, but I won't give any clues. I'm sure by now this is a no brainer anyway.
Won't be home from volleyball practice tonight until 10 p.m. So will just get the last of The Bachelor, if it is a two-hour show.
I loved the opening of the Olympic games, but thought the closing was way tooooooooo cheesy and weird.

Hi everyone. That was some Olympics, eh? The Canadians were the best hosts. Great games too. Hope you all enjoyed it too (I know sparkie did) . Know nothing about Y&R -- didn't watch it today. Had to pour concrete.
Been thinking....nearly all this week I spoke with many people who hardly know I'm on this Chatbook about a dear friend that recently passed and how I and others felt about her. I retrospectively felt, well not dumb, but like, why should they care? Yet I found some people interested in not only the news, but how well we online friends care for each other. Have any others had similar experiences?

I read that Cassie will be back for a scene. Probably will coincide with Sharon and Nick finding Faith is theirs.
I sure wish that story would be over SOON. It's getting tiresome, as the "Adam-evil-doer" is. Patty/Em stuff needs some sparks, as it had to day when Em screams as P tries to suffocate her.
Loved the scene with Jack,Patty, Phylis, Diane...all we needed was Sharon and Emily...the wives club?
AND the mystery about who's kids are Daisy and Ryder? I guess it isn't Diane...or is it? She doesn't seem quite that evil.

I know, Sparkie, you were GO CANADA, but for a NY-er like me, it's a let down. Ah, but what a game, eh? Worth the price of admission, for sure. US won 6 games in 4 days to get to this game, and that says something.
Canada GOLD...US SILVER ! Like that national anthem of Canada.

We all think you 'went too soon', but maybe going quickly and at this time, was really your Reward from God, for being such a wonderful person.
We are as shocked and saddened at losing you, as we all were when Dear Couch left this earth quickly too. I hope you two have met up already, and are having a heavenly wonderful laugh together. Jam

Pinkie : That was a beautiful song you picked out for Nurse Connie. She was certainly the voice of comfort and compassion as she wrote of her concern for Mr.P, my mom,and others on this page, giving advice when needed, medical or otherwise. I think she was the one who welcomed me as I began (please forgive me if I'm wrong).
NC had that 'down home' humor about her that I liked (trying to find an example or two) in her closing statments.
Oh God, she will be missed
Whoever can come up with that compilation NC's posts, you should be rewarded.
Anyway, [back to y&r] you all should see the look Patty gave to the woman who said Dr.Emily's treatment of her patient was "a lost cause".
God Bless you all.

Nurse Connie was the first person that warmly greeted me to the chatroom. When my husband and I rode our motorcycle down the Tenn. she gave me her phone number and address. Jean, you were sure lucky to have a "sista" like her, and we were lucky to have known her too. May God give the family the strength they need at this time.

I wanted you for life

its hard to understand
but I guess i'll have to try
its not easy
to say goodbye .....
For all the joy we shared
all that time we had to spend
now if I had one wish
I'd want forever back again
to look into your eyes
and hold you when you cry
its not easy
to say goodbye......
I can remember all those great times we had
There were so many memories, some good some bad
yes and through it all
those memories will last
forever .....
Theres peace in where you are
may be all I need to know
and if I listen to my heart
i'll hear your laughter once more
and so I got to say
i'm just glad you came my way
its not easy to say
goodbye.....

Ladybug I think the idea of gathering a lot of posts by and about NC and somehow printing them out and sending them to Charlie is a FANTASTIC idea. I don't have a printer but I could work on compiling posts from both here and Facebook. Y'all let me know if you think that's a good idea and I can get started on that. Does anyone remember who posted regarding NC "I hope Elvis meets you at the pearly gates"? So yeah, gathering some great posts like that, printing them out (I'd have to send the compilation to someone with a printer) and then mailing them to Charlie would be awesome and I'll bet when he's ready, Charlie would LOVE this!!
Jean what you just said:
And when we signed off (it was 12:30 my time, NC 1:30) you said don't go, we might not be able to do this again, meaning we might not be able to figure it out. Now it has a whole different meaning.

OMG, I am in shock. Having read all your posts today, I'm in total surprise of this sad news. Tears welled up as I read each one and I could see how much Nurse Connie was so well loved. Her most recent post brought such impressions of peaceful, contentedness on her back porch...I cried as I read it again. I certainly enjoyed her Southern remarks and news of upcoming meals for that day. Really liked how she sent to all, a "happy hearts day..." even as she complained of the 3-day migraine and the whirring washing machine.(see Feb.14) Somehow, NC always touched my heart. She was a joy to read. Yes, sadly we will miss her. Rest In Peace, NC.

And I just wrote in the Y&R FB chat that "NC's in the house, now the party can start" for a reason, she was the life of the party with her expressive posts and all her southern sayings like, slap my knee and fry me up some grits, or whatever she used to say LOL I will miss her posting what she was making for dinner, her cooking sounded so good I always wanted to eat dinner at Nurse Connie's house.

I need to have a little bit of a rant here! It seems to me that Nurse Connie started going down hill after she was laid off from a job she loved and I'm sure was very good at. Why, in God's name was a person like her laid off??? Why was a hospital closed??? Easy answer...money! Anybody who doesn't think we need major healthcare reform needs their head examined. Of course, you can only get your head examined if you have insurance and let's hope your head problems aren't a pre-existing condition. I hope Nurse Connie's death was not in vain. Sorry...but my emotion got the hold of me....

> What with the burden of accusations pressed upon him, it appears Adam is taking the easy route by leaving the country. I suppose he knows if there are no convictions he can do this, so I guess he thought he better go now, BEFORE Ashley or Phyllis prove the charges against him. I imagine the squeal of racing tires as he drives away.

You know that Jill and Billy are going to uncover Tucker's 25-year old indiscretion, plaster it on the front cover of Restless Style, and Tucker will think that Catherine stabbed him in the back, just as they are getting close. Ladybug: I guess by now you have seen the episode I was referring to.
Gotta admit I liked the bonding with Victor and Tucker. Good insights into both of them. Good writing in this regard.
Patty sure is not happy when her "surprise" is finally uncovered.
Interesting two sets of bad news in our paper today: Researchers have proven that Alberta has the highest rate of Inflamatory Bowel Disease in the world. They now feel it has an environmental cause. Also our life expenctancy rate is the lowest in Canada. Wow, think it's time to move on.

Snow has melted off our lawns, but still lots in ditches and fields - Wed Feb 24 16:41:07 MST 2010
Drat, I was enjoying Terminator K, and now Tucker has gone all emo as well. Thank the Ouja I've got Daisy in a brown wig conspiring Kevin and Jenna's demise or I might never satisfy this craving for wanton betrayal and misdeed.
Man, Daisy sure is cold...even for a teenage girl. They do femme fatal well on this show, which is why I was expecting K to take no prisoners. Now that she didn't smite the enemy, I'm kinda relieved. She's a sweet woman, one of the good girls. We can leave the avenging angel stuff to Phylis, Nina...Jill. Oh gosh, Jill. K had better keep her Sword of Damocles on Tucker well sheathed because if Jill gets wind of it his head will be off. A clean cut, and speaking of public execution, I wouldn't want to be Adam now that there is blood in the water; Victor is going to start doing some piecing together of his own.
If he gets the drop on Adam, you can expect an SL about the two of them going at it like real super rivals, like The Joker and Batman. Victor won't kill him or lock him up but keep him around so they could keep clashing again and again no matter who gets caught in the cross fire, like Jack and Victor do. Still Adam would need secure footing to engage in such epic piss contestery. Maybe he'll be the one to take down Tucker and acquire the spoils that come along with it. Tucker may be feeling subdued, but he's already set a chain of events in motion and concocted a combustible stew of potential destruction and bedlam, Adam being the carrots in that stew. Oh boy, I'm really excited now!! Patti's peroxide is forgivin, devoted fan again!!

The scenes with Tucker and Katherine were good, but I'm waiting for one one of them to become human...and see past the business/money. I hope it's Katherine because the revenge mode isn't very attractive on her.
I guess Daisy goes to school as often anyone goes to work...LOL!!! With all these multimillion dollar corporations it's funny how they can spend so much time hanging out at the coffee shop or club dealing with personal problems.
Victoria said she didn't want to take Reed away from JT. What makes her think she could??? She looks very pregnant to me.
Kevin! He's suspicious of Ryder but then lets him in on what's going on in the investigation.
I've finally come into the 21st century (kicking and screaming...as my daughter would say) and got a great big flat screen digital TV. WOW! That high def sure makes a difference. Y&R almost looks 3D.
Just curious....how are you Texans dealing with the snow? Is it...WOW that's beautiful? Or...oh sh*t, I have to drive in that???? Although we generally get snow once a year, my reaction is both, in that order.

Considering Daisy and Ryder were posing like two D&G models over an unconscious Jenna (that could have been an ad), I'd say they are standing over what they done. That was apparent today when Ryder decided to join the husband/best friend search party!
Great scene with Patti! "You've got the picture, but I've got the man." ...Loved it. The picture of Emily is supremely creepy, brings me back to the Sabrina statue and the Gloria portrait!

I hope he is in as much control as he thinks he is...DID THE PATTI DEBACLE TEACH HIM NOTHING!! He retains his poise and arrogant air when Victoria enters and is soon informed of the plot to fool Tucker. She is not happy that her integrity and reputation as a business professional is being put in Jeopardy again. She walks out and later refuses to cooperate, promising her resignation. Victor seems peeved by this action, even more so when Victoria goes to cool off at the bar and winds up horse playing with Billy Abbot and Victor sees.

I do find it interesting that Ashley has taken the reigns on her own life and expressed her distrust of Adam but how Adam's loyalty to Jack, if he joins the Abbots, will add to that distrust I don't know.
Was Janna knocked off by Daisy and Ryder? I hope not. As strange as she sometimes is, with the weegie boards and whatnot, she's still good for Kevin and Kev would be at a loss w/o her.

I too wondered "if" Emily was going to announce as her wedding gift to Jack that she was with child.
Also remember they showed Lily and Cane in the future with children and they showed Kevin, but he wasn't with Jana (the shots of the future from Colleen when she died to Lily ). Wondering if that might be a hint that Jana won't be around, I hope not so as I have grown to like Jana especially with Kevin.

okay -- i don't think i've ever seen ryder or daisy -- but i know who they are -- who is jake ?? -- another dateless nerd on the show (i think chance or chase or whatever the marine's name is was a dateless so and so as well) -- also -- now we'll have to be careful when typing jack and jake -- with all the names in the world, why did the writers chose one so close to another character's

ladybug I have thought the same thing, it is entirely possible that Jake is a closet nerd--he's mentioned several times that he was a dateless wonder in high school. It's interesting because the way "image" is set up in our society, we would never equate someone who is that good looking with being a nerd; we all have a different mental image of what a nerd looks like, and it's definitely not Jake! But that sure doesn't mean squat! Look at Gia too, drop dead gorgeous, got teased so much in school that she had to switch schools! You just never can tell about people from their outside looks.

Now that we all have voiced our input on the outcome of Adam's sorry life, we see here in today's show how Adam is leading a mournful and painfully sad existence while carrying the guilt of his past coupled with his true love, Sharon to whom he can never reveal the truth. Truly Adam's is the tragedy story though we all know he has to face the music.
I wonder when Patty's passion is going to uncover her real passion for Jack, thus revealing the Emily she is not. Oh, and do you all think Victor's going to notice the difference in this "Emily Abbott", seeing the real Patty instead (wasn't she Victor's idea in the beginning, to distract Jack from Jabot?)
One last thing. Daisy and Ryder evidently are attempting to unnerve Jana and Kevin. What purpose did it serve to lock Kevin in the elevator while Jana peruses the Fisher photo album?

There is no chemistry at all between Sharon and Adam as I guess there shouldn't be since she made such a major mistake. That girl just never ever gets it..you don't attach yourself to a relative of your ex husband. Why didn't Ashley go ballistic on "his hands permanently live in his pockets" about just walking into the ranch without knocking on the door first? And why is she always acting soo surprised about his behaviors like she has no idea. Hasn't she known him for like 30 yrs? She should have his whole character down by now..

Good call on the pregnancy idea for Em. Maybe that's how they'll discover Patty's hoax. I don't think she and Jack would really be married if it wasn't Em and she forged her name on marriage cert.
When Patty lifted the peroxide she was coming out of the shower and people were busy in the hallway talking about her in front of her room. She did it very slyly(is that a word?)

Think Sharon could be having second thoughts about Adam? She did sort of have a questioning look on her face. About time!!
Glad to see Lily wearing a wig instead of one of those stocking caps. She did look cute, even if her hair was showing in little twigs. Never did understand the hat deal when there are so many cute wigs.

I think if Adam tried to kill Phylis, she'd somehow turn the tables on him and he'd get it. Or, I really think Sharon will find out on her own what Adam did and she'll kill him. SHE HAS BEEN ASSERTING HERSELF LATELY. I think Phylis will be around snooping, learn of the murder, and help Sharon conceal it. Whoa, that would be intense.
Also if Sharon learns the truth before Phylis and Adam tries to go all Stepfather on her, she'll have to kill him or Phylis saves Sharon from him. Whatever happens, I think Sharon and Phylis will be in the thick of it together.
Even so, I don't want Adam to die. I really am anticipating a genuine redemption attempt on his part and I don't mean like rescuing Noah, that was showboating. Glad he did it though and I bet Phylis is. If Noah had died, that would have for sure sent Nick and Sharon into each others arms for good.
Admitting what he did could do it. I guess the only thing that could usher that in was if something where to happen to Ashley and Faith was orphaned or if Adam gets busted for the murder of Dr. Taylor and going away for good, comes clean about everything. I'd prefer the latter; Ashley's death would hit me hard. I'm still recovering from watching Sabrina slowly fade away for an entire week. That was awful.

Never thought that perhaps Emily's secret was she was pregnant. Somehow I can't imagine a Psychologist trivializing such an important circumstance in her's and Jack's life, by making a public announcement without Jack's knowledge.

Hi, folks.
Only heard what was on Y&R today.
The fact that Adam gave Phyllis that piercing glare indicates Phyllis may not have long on this earth. I'm glad she wants everyone involved in the baby switch to know the culprit, but if Adam has his way she may be silenced.
I think that in a business sense Victor, and agreeably, Nick, just want to give him enough rope to "hang himself" so Adam fails all his business dealings. But the Harvard grad may prevail anyway.

Mary W: It has ocurred to me too that Jake is cute on the outside and an insecure nerd on the inside and doesn't want the challenge of a really attractive woman. Rumors are that Ali will be the next Bachelorette.
kd lang (she goes with lower case) has been one of my favorite singers since I first heard her sing.
adb: Interesting theory about Emily being pregnant. But, if they discover "Pattie" pregnant, I don't think they'll assume that she's Emily. Women in mental institutes do get raped and taken advantage of. The fact that she got the newspaper, scissors, etc. shows that it isn't exactly a top-notch facility. Of course if Chloe knows that Emily is pregnant, that's a different ball game.
Here's a story: Fake Emily finds out that real Emily is pregnant. So she feigns concern and guilt over not having taken better care of her patient and convinces Jack that they should adopt the baby.
BTW...lest someone misunderstands: we are only speculating about Emily being pregnant...no one knows.
Please let Adam be found out and gotten rid of! I can't stand Ashley's whining anymore and don't want to see that creepy statue EVER AGAIN!!!

JAM isn't it comforting to know so many people are worried about you when you're gone?!
Ladybug I agree about Vienna, way too young and immature, and he didn't even give the woman from the Airforce a chance---weird. My girlfriends on FB are theorizing that Jake does not want an "equal" woman that might possibly challenge him.
I suppose she's in great health and very strong but I'm sorry, the actress that plays Emily/Patty's body totally grosses me out! I almost puked during the bikini scene! Is that attractive?? I guess to some...if I was a man I would definitely prefer a little meat on my woman's bones

Patti smuggled in a bottle of peroxide during an episode prior to her great escape. She was using the washroom facilities and walked past a cart of toiletries; at once she placed a bottle of peroxide under a towel she had placed over her shoulder. She had another placed over her hair, no telling what she had securely concealed beneath! Hmmm, probably some Equal, which she used to sweeten Emily's mind numbing cocktail.
Initially, I didn't see the peroxide bottle so I utilized my own creativity; I relied on the likely hood that the medicine Patti gave Emily fried her brain so severely that it caused her hair to go instantly white. You can borrow that if you want to, if the Patti beauty salon in her cell is too crass for you to swallow.
Grrr, I wanted to kill Lilly today. You could see her hair. Some of it was poking out from under her hat around her ears, long pieces. How long does it take to look yourself in the mirror?
....hmmmm, pastels don't really work on Billy. Ashley looks incredible. Phylis should stop draping. I take it everyone has a different stylist because Daisy looks really good all the time. Paul...his clothes don't fit - Ashley,mmmmmm - Nikki, funeral parlor chic - Minna, the opera - Tracy, fab!

Did you know in years past there were so many complaints about second-by-second comments during figure skating that our populace changed the way the reporters now cover the skating? Love it. There were a few comments, though, about the Ukrainian "Avatar" blue jumpsuits. As one reporter got out, "In one word, that's just wrong. Maybe two words, wrong and wrong." LOL.

Emily's dress, hair, all of it, was just awful. Did they fire the wardrobe department on the show!!! I don't think Emily will die. If she is thinking coherently, doesn't even have memory loss, I think she'll be okay. She's not even really in a coma. Maybe she's in that weird state where you can't move. That would be worse than death...almost.
So Jack and "Emily" show up on the same island as Sharon and Adam? The same hotel??? Same restaurant at the same time!!! Oy vey!!!!
"The Bachelor" keeps getting worser and worser. Is this guy for real??? How could he possibly have such bad taste and judgement. Watching the previews for the next show reminded me that there were a lot of very nice and pretty girls to choose from. The spoilers say he picks Vienna. I hope he picks nobody. I can't remember in the previous shows when the girls got so much gossip in the media before the show even ended. If he did pick Vienna, they'll probably be broken up before the final rose show airs!!

Am watching downhill skiing right now. Have enjoyed this Olympics so far. Hi, haw are you all?
Did not get to watch Y&R today, but heard that Emily is not going to make it; yet while she is in the comatose state she is saying in her mind, "I'm not Patty, I'm Emily!" But someone said here in this Chat Book, that Patty has birthmark, scar, or mark that distinguishes her from Emily so that maybe Jack at the wedding night will notice the ta-da. Is this so?

Boy was that sex scene awkward.
But onto more important matters...WHY WAS THE DRESS SO BIG LOVE like someone already said here. I might not have agreed until Jack picks "Emily" :) up and she's got white patent leather, horrible, vomitous, so horrible I had to make up the word vomitous, Carrie White gets married, chunky, cheap looking, your grandmother wouldn't even wear these to her funeral...shoes on!...and then the hair....uuugh, ringlets, what is she ten? Actually, I felt like I was watching Interview With The Vampire; she looked very Claudia grows up. Oh the horror. Sadly, wherever, she is, Shirley Temple is angry because they managed to make ringlets look FLAT. What woman wants such a flat-lined look on her Wedding Day and to think Miss. Chloe signed off on it! Her fashionista license has officially been suspended!

Or, if like many other things on Y & R, the writers will simply forget it ever existed.

I knew how to play street basketball, but I'm not convinced my teammates played the same. In addition, I wore running shoes, which on a sweaty, wood floor, was like slippers on ice. After I fouled out I watched helplessly as my teammates lost. And no, I am not married.

I think JT and Victoria might have survived if she weren't quite so much her father's daughter as far as wanting to be the "One" in business and the fact that she did cheat on him with Deacon. JT did love her, God he sat next to her and willed her back to life just about when she was injured. I do think he wanted to be more of the bread winner and have a better job to be able to do so, I think Victor should stop and think about that before dumping on JT. Also I think she showed more of her inner self to all of us by walking out the door immediately upon getting home instead of running up the stairs to wake her son up and say mommy's home.

Ashley's hair is a do. Nikki's hair is a DON'T!
But speaking of aesthetics, I know we love to hate her, although I just love her, but did Gloria not look ridiculously chic and intriguing on the day she was revealed as the new ambassadress? That crazy gold coat with the fuzzy arms and the fuzzy hat, which I think was a "do". Lilly's winter hats are a DON'T!
Thanks Cactus. I think the best SL to date was the marge/K switch and and the ensuing mayhem up to the explosion and then after that it was just beautiful the way Murphy and K's relationship budded and K's life blossomed. The scenes with Marge at K's funeral were so moving I got misty. The Silver Chipmunk madness that was intertwined was CRAZY, but at least fun and not insulting...to sane people.
Dye foolishness aside, I liked the way they recovered at the end of today's show. The beginning of the wedding was subtly creepy and it's made to look like Patti, Emily, and Paul are the only one's aware, like a private nightmare. And now Dr.P is a prisoner in her own mind. Oh, the irony. Only on the SOAPS, lol!

Well, the Olympics are on tonight.
I heard 48 out of 50 states have SNOW! Texas had more snow than ever; even Florida!
Will Fr.Todd notice Patty at the wedding? And What if Emily dies from the overdose? Will the hospital staff know Emily died or, with the 'wool' over their eyes, still think it's Patty?

Pattie dyed Emily's hair with peroxide. That's better than hair dye, at least a hospital would have it. But, still, how did she get to the supply room. Chris...good idea...they should have had her trading sex for favors or something like that...LOL!
They rarely do scenes in cars unless there is a better reason to be there. But it is distracting. Like when Billy comes to the coffee shop carrying all his loot from NYC as if he had walked there from the bus station! Wouldn't he just transfer the stuff from his car to Chloe's car? That kind of stuff I can live with. Other stuff is totally unecessary.

I turned my head for a second and when I turned around, Dr. P was blond.
I'm no professional scribe, but a few details would have changed this. They could have, prior to, shown orderlies behaving irresponsible :sneaking off to smoke or fool around, not making daily rounds, watching SOAPS instead of the monitors and shown Patty observing this misconduct.
Or, they could have introduced an orderly to catch Patty in the act. Of course, strong independent woman that she is, Dr. P has a tazer in her purse, which Patty grabs, uses it on the orderly (kills), and gains possession of keys she uses to gain access to an actual utility closet with bleach or maybe even beauty aids. She also could have made it to an actual bathroom with the body, which would have made more sense and the dying could have been concealed from the prying eye of reality like it wasn't in Patty's cell today!
The orderly could have even had a cleaning cart with bleach on it and staff could have been shown viewing the camera, seeing the cart by the door, and figuring all was well.
Patty could then used the orderly's keys to free patients; creating a frenzy, which would make her escape more plausible because I don't think that scarf over her head would have fooled a bloody anybody.
During the confusion she isn't noticed leaving by staff and later her decoy is found unconscious in the washroom, the hallway, or her room. The frenzy could allow for it to be anywhere, just not perfectly layed out in her cell.

Did I miss how Patty got Emily's hair from brown to blonde? Yes, the whole scenario certainly stretches reality.

I'm amazed Patti could walk out with no one seeing what was done. It's no surprise Paul was so upset about "Patti's" condition, evident no one was taking proper care of Patty, besides allowing newspapers and scissors in the joint.
But now that Pattycake is at Abbots for the upcoming nuptuals, something's got to happen to reveal the Ta-Da! to smilin' Jack (who will surely be upset).
JT appears expressionless in any response to Victoria's statements regarding their dwindled relationship. But is JT going to jump in Mac's bed? Writers will soon tell up I guess.
Later.

Regarding The Bachelor, even though Jake is pleasant, genuine and honest, the more I see of him, the more I think marriage to him would be such a bore. That's why Ali would suit him fine. She doesn't have much substance, IMO. I forget what her job was that was so important.

Victor owns Jabot, Victoria will be the CEO. I'm sure he gave Gloria a position just to stick it to Jack and it sounds like he has more shenanigans up his sleeve. He, apparently, will spare no cost to make Jack's life miserable. When the truth comes out about Pattie, Victor will be thrilled and wishing he had come up with the plan himself.
Ellen did much better than I expected. I do I like her a lot so I was hoping she would do well. She got excellent reviews from all major newspapers and the polls had her around 80% thought she did great.
RC: Heard on the local news that there was a 50 car pile up in Williamsburg!! Didn't look like anyone was hurt so they were probably poking along at 5 mph. Virginians just don't know how to drive in snow. When I'm out, I'm more afraid of the other drivers than I am of the ice and snow. You see more cars in ditches than on the road!
"The Bachelor"...it looks like Ali will be coming back. If it was staged, it's too bad they didn't do something original. Last time it was Ed that left and came back. Gossip...apparently when Tenley was married the cause of divorce was that she withheld sex. She failed to mention that to Jake.

LaKing, I agree with you about "Patch" (sorry, he'll always be Patch to me)--his face looks "weathered." LaKing you know you can watch the epis on cbs.com right? I don't think I've touched my VCR in years. Watching on internet is nice, less commercials, and you can watch any time with headphones in case there's someone else in the room.
Cactus, I'm always here reading every single post I just sometimes don't chime in.
You regulars have been expressing concern about "JAM" for quite a long time, someone should try to call her maybe??
**The rest is all Bachelor stuff!!**
Cactus a couple girlfriends who also watch the Bachelor thought the whole Ali going back to work things was a set up too. I agree it's very strange that someone wouldn't clear the maximum amount of time they are going to be gone with their boss' approval before going on a reality show. I was not too thrilled with the women they picked for Jake, so young! Why? Jake is 31, doesn't he want someone at the same maturity level as him?
Ladybug, Vienna posing topless doesn't surprise me, remember when they were at the comedy club and Corrie was mocking Vienna walking around the house topless in front of the girls? ICK Maybe Floridians are more likely to go nude because of the whole thong thing in Florida?? The only girl I really like at this point is Gia and that's only because she seems like the only relatively normal one left; Tenley is nice but too cutesy for me and her voice, OMG!
By the way I thought it took some MAJOR COJONES for Gia's little scrawny half brother or whoever he was to tell Jake that if he hurt Gia he was going to have to come find him and break his legs! What?! Is that not so stereotypical of what an Italian New Yorker would say?? That guy needs a part on that Jersey Shore show!

To all of you who are getting snow right now, keep the faith , it does eventually stop, and although being housebound and having cabin fever isn't fun it definitely could be worse.
I have "enjoyed" it for 50 years now and I have to admit that for the past few weeks we have had no snow and I can not say I have missed it! I know that winter for us is not over yet ,so I will enjoy clear roads, warmer temps,and sunshine for now.

Snowed in again. Couldn't even go get my little granddaughter!! Speaking for myself, who is not used to having snow more than once a year, if that, and it melts before noon....I don't like it!! The weight of the snow ripped a seam on my awning. (Running a little bar, on a beach of a sunny Caribbean island sounds so wonderful right now!!)
I'm still watching "The Bachelor". I'm starting to see why Jake doesn't get dates....he has really bad judgment. What (in God's name!!!) is the attraction with Vienna??? She is clearly high maintenance among other unappealing factors. Does he know that she has posed topless? Why did he ask two parents for their daughters hand in marriage? Shouldn't he have waited until he was sure and called them on the phone? I really felt sorry for Tenley's dad. But I think she is wrong for Jake. For one, who could stand that Minny Mouse voice for the rest of your life? And it would be wrong for her to get married so soon after a divorce...a lot of baggage with that one. I like Gia, but apparently she has had a boob job, nose job and who knows what else. Does he know that? Ali seemed so perfect for him. If her job is so great wouldn't her employer understand? And what about grama up in heaven being so happy. In the previews, Ali called him, so maybe there is still hope.
I'm glad Victor chose Victoria to be CEO and not Gloria, as the spoilers said. I can't believe, when she got home, that she ran out of the house without even going to look in on Reed. After all that time away from him, you couldn't have paid me to leave the house!! Love Victoria and Billy together.
I'm really liking what's coming with Pattie. So deliciously creepy!!! Poor Emily, she got waterboarded...and poor old Jack. First he loses his company and now this.

Is anyone still watching The Bachelor? I think it is incredible that Ali would agree to appear on the show and not let her employer know how long she would be away. Plus, shouldn't the producers ensure that all the women are there for the duration of the show? Almost sounds like a set-up for ratings. I thought perhaps the preview of the helicopter was Ali flying in for the -- usual -- most dramatic ending yet! I don't see the attraction, like, the woman, like, can't say two words, like, without "like."

Well, if anyone remembers me, it me! LaKing! I'm sorry I have been awal so long.
I've been reading a few of your past posts. I don't really like Stephen Nichols as Tucker, I liked William Russ a whole lot better. I liked Nichols when he was Patch in Days of our Lives. And someone said, I believe this was around the first of the month, that they thought Tucker is supposed to be younger than Brock? Well if that is true, neither actor playing him looks younger than Brock. Nichols is really looking bad! He used to be rather good looking but age hasn't treated him well.
My vcr messed up last week in recording, so I don't really know what happened then, but I did see Mondays and Tuesdays show so I am getting things figured out. The whole Jill/Katherine/Tucker story line is really ridiculous in my opinion. I think they should have left well enough alone with Jill and Katherine. I lliked them as mopm/daughter. They still had their ups and downs.
Gotta go, will check in later in the week.

Why does Mac's acting go between being a simpleton and and that of a teenager and why was she looking so guilty when Victoria came home - DUH!!! Go back to Darfur and eat pizza.
Who in their right mind would make the Black Widow and Ambassadoress! They invent words like positions. Even to PO jack it does not make sense. IF Victor spent way, way too much money for Jabot, who says Katherine would want to pay that to get it back and Victor is certainly not giving that much money away to Catherine or anybody else.....so I guess for now Jabot becomes a Newman family business.
Deb
- Tue Feb 9 18:40:23 MST 2010
Hello, everyone.
Jabot's future has been secured in Newman's hands; for now. Hopefully, though, he'll sell it to Chancellor Ind. thus keeping it alive, and let Jack cry in his beer(yeah, but it's his family's business). In doing so, I think, he's taken power away from T-man Tucker, right?
It looks good to see Daniel encouraging Amber in his love. She needs that; whether by fault of her own or not, she's had nothing but trouble and disappointment for years.
But Daniel, it seems, is targeted by Daisy, who I think is no good to anyone.
A question is: When does the wig come off Emily for the Ta-Da!? When Jack is married to her? Maybe. The scissors, I'm told, are safety scissors because Patti likes to do the paper mache stuff. But in the back of my mind a picture of "Psycho" comes up to show her stabbing the nurse to get the keys and escape (can't print the music, though).
Hope things are better for you all in Northern VA.
BTW, what do you all think of school kids sharing Contact Lenses? It's become a fashion statement I hear.

Okay, I am accepting that Victor is playing everyone. You will know by now that the "Ambassadress" is not the "CEO."

I guess with no new characters, the writers just have to keep recycling, ie: JT and Mac.
The Emily/Patty switch is sooooooooo predictable. How will Patty go to work as Emily?

We don't know yet who Victor chose to be CEO of Jabot. But, Cactus mentioned a spoiler so I had to go look...yes, she was right, it's shocking. Unless you think CEO of an international cosmetic company should be someone with no education and very little job experience in any field. Makes absolutely no sense. Victor is making me want to side with Tucker.
Noah is going to Paris...well...because he can. Yes, because of Eden primarily, but also because his family situation is a mess. Nick blames Sharon marrying Adam, but what finally drove Noah to want to leave is the public family brawl. I guess when Nick got his bright idea, neither he or Victor gave a thought to how it would effect Noah.

Thanks to those who want me to stay on here. I better had because this keeps me out of HQ's hair occasionally which she appreciates. Also, she sometimes puts her two cents in.
The last time I came on here, I tried to get off without posting and my computer refused to do so. I clicked on the red X several times, nothing happened. When I moved the cursor down over the entries, I got the little hourglass. When I went to the lower left red box to turn off the computer, the little hourglass just stayed on. So I pulled the plug which I know is a no-no, but sometimes it's the only way. Next time I booted up, all was well. I hope after this, I can get off normally!
Anyway, Dayna, there was a brief scene of Cane talking furtively on the phone, looking very nervous but I didn't catch what he was saying. And I agree about Ashley knowing it if she had given birth. My wife has borne three children and her body told her all about it for weeks afterward! But dear Ashley was in great shape already. Unbelievable! You said it well, lady bug-Ashley remembers the cloth so clearly. And what you said about Adam- right on!
Mary W, apparently the people who run the asylum are mentally defective themselves. Not only can't they see the rip in the bedding but they give Patti the newspaper. And she has scissors? In a padded cell? Aren't there any instructions about her at the nurses' station? NC rightly points out there should be a TV monitor. To paraphrase a Brooks & Dunn lyric- there ain't nothin about this hospital that ain't cuckoo.
Well, I've spent some time commenting on others' posts, so now I'll go watch 2 and 1/2 men reruns for a while. So long, troops. Will I get off?

Deb - I agree on all counts.
Think about it writers....if Lauren is a smart enough business women to own & operate a multimillion dollar company, why can't she figure out the cause of her headaches; in addition to Daisy's antics, which by now even I would suspect. Let's not milk this thing; it gets skim (pun). How is it, Lauren could reason, every time I complain of tenseness or a headache, Daisy gives me tea and I get worse? I mean, how long has this been going on? Cheese.
Maybe, if the Vic calls back Victoria ("Yeah, bring the kid!" he says -lol) she and JT can resume their romance. But I agree w/ you, debs, JT and Mac is not a match made in...well that's my opinion. Mac needs something to make her smile and JT's work will keep him away too long for that.
Yes, NC, Peyton played for the Tenn. Vols., but all his volunteerism (pun) didn't pay off in this Superbowl. Sigh. Maybe his brother will win the playoffs next year and put the Giants in the Superbowl. Hope springs eternal.

Adam has returned to being cocky after he fulfilled his job for Newman.

Hey! The Saints won the SuperBowl and we all know that's the lift that NO needed.Who Dat and congrats!
So Tucker has a new bed warmer: that leggy, pretty brunette at his door is going to break Jill's heart, especially having been pink - slipped by Kate now.
NC - the Cardinal is for Tenn. too? OK I'll buy that. As I said, he's a good indicator that things are ok in the backyard because of his flightiness. Generic name for the cardinal is Cardinalis virginianus. It is also called Virginia's Cardinal. But its territory spreads from Canada to Mexico, so it is possible Tennessee may also have it as its state bird.
Now, adb, the Mockingbird is unique. As you know, it copies, or mocks, other bird calls and goes on for hours. I like its calls, but it is territorial and real mean. My poor cat was attacked long time ago and was afraid of birds till its passing.

I think Victoria will come back to run Jabot. Then her and Billy Boy will hit it off and Kaboom, Jabot will be an Abbot assett again. Though if Victor was the friend he claims to be...he would actually give Jabot to Katherine again. Then she would give it back to Jack for his loyal support in her time of trouble. Kaboom, Jabot belongs to the Abbotts again!!
Loved tucker dropping Jill like a hot potato and for the right reasons for a change. It was unexpected.....I like that though did feel sorry for Jill. Maybe Wadda ya call him (the biker) will come back. They were good together.
Chance hasn't been around for donkeys years, just back from Iraq, what could anyone possibly have on him to want to set him up given his age etc..... stupid. Like we don't know his supervisor is trying to shut him up.
For God sake figure out the tea bag headaches and pin point Daisy. If I was Eden I would not want to come back to Lauren's to live if that is what she thought of me. Besides, don't you think by now Eden and Michael would have talked and he would know that "someone else" set up the Paris trip etc.... doesn't make sense for the caring family.
Daisy is so evil.... she plays it well, her and Adam should get married!
Yes the blind man can see, all too well and how perfectly he opened and resealed EVERY envelope not to be discovered by the worldly Tucker. I like the new Tucker.
Hate that they will break up JT and Victoria. HATE, HATE, HATE that they are starting to pair Mac and JT....double ugh!.
Anyone notice how hump backed Abbey is. Boy is she a future case of Osteoarthritis. She is doing a better job these days of acting but I still haven't warmed to her.

Preparing to watch the SUPERBOWL. I'm rooting for the Colts; mostly because the QB is brother to the QB for the NY Giants.

My state bird is a cardinal so I have seen many, but it always thrills me. One of my fondest memories is visiting friends in the country, driving past a field and seeing a small evergreen and thinking, how odd that someone decorated it with red bows out here in the middle of nowhere. As we got closer we saw it was covered with cardinals. I have a bird feeder outside my window and even here in the city it's always full of birds. My granddaughter loves watching them "eat their lunch". Once in a while, not often, I get a cardinal. I bluejay once attacked me. It came diving out of a tree straight at my head. I thought it was a fluke until he did it again. I was in his yard. He was beautiful if not too friendly. I LOVE birds.
I like the Pattie/Emily story. It's vintage soap opera...I can almost hear the organ music in the background...LOL! It would be better if they could have worked in the "evil twin" scenerio. Y&R had an evil twin once, I think??? Ashley had a husband, Michael Tylo, I think he had a twin but don't know which one was evil.
That's an interesting theory on Phyllis hooking up with Adam to protect their marriages. Could happen.
My taxes are done too. My daughter did them on turbo tax. (MaryW...you'll find as you get older that daughters do all kinds of wonderful things for you. I'm sure sons do too, but I don't have one of those.) Anyway, it turned out much better than last year when H&R did them. I do hope I don't get visited upon by the feds...LOL!!

I agree with Sparkie about the boring people. I tape Y & R and FF them. I want to add that I hate Ashley and Neil as a couple. Ìt looks like Jacko is going to end up wedding Patty Cake. I think when Phylis finds out that Ashley`s baby is Sharon`s and Nick`s she is going to team up with Adam, to prevent losing Nick. Just my thoughts. Sharon from Edmonton Ab Y R viewer for 39 yrs

MaryBeth..almost everyday late in the afternoon, we must get around 10 or so cardinals, all at once (male and female) at the bird feeder, they are a site to behold, so beautiful. also for about the last 3 years, we have a tree outside our kitchen window and a hole in the trunk of the tree and a little owl has come back the last few winters and has made that his home. he just fits perfectly in the hole, we see him different times of the day just sitting in edge of the hole. he is so cute, we have named him "Sam". then once the weather gets nicer he leaves, then back again the next winter. we get so much enjoyment watching the wild life.
Y&R...Lauren..boring
Patty/Emily..boring
Chance..boring....only like watching the Adam storyline, watching him squirm.

MaryW it all along has made me question the acts at the mental Inst. because of the items they leave in Patti's PADDED room...I would think she would be under a servalince per TV at the nurses station...we use to have rules that a patient was commented on or docummented on their behavior every 15 minutes when in padded cell protection...
Now are we really suprised how underhanded Victor acted?
Tucker dumping Jill was spell binding for me...made me pmp and slap my knee I tell ya...
Does anyone else want to wash Cane's hair and style it but me? It looks like crap...even Kevin hair looks nice or at least clean...IMO

Patty got the newspaper from the loony bin worker who probably didn't know she wasn't supposed to get newspapers. He gave her the newspaper so she could use it as an art supply to finish making her ugly paper mache house!

> It's gratifying to see Victor help Catherine while also 'take down' his bitter enemy, which I guess is Tucker.
It's also gratifying to see the storylines moving faster. They must be reading our stuff, huh?

I can't imagine Victor selling Jabot back to the Abbots. He hates Jack more than he loves money. Maybe Victor will buy up all the companies that Tucker sells.
Adam explained to Sharon once the nature of his blindness. It's not like blurry vision that gets worse. It's that his field of vision gets smaller and smaller until it's gone. What he CAN see is perfectly clear, but it's like looking through a tunnel. I knew someone once who had retinitis...that's what happened to her.
Wonder if the Pattie switch will happen in front of our eyes or will we find out in flash backs. Jack saw Emily getting her picture taken in her wedding gown...yet today she said that she didn't want him to see her before the wedding. Does that mean she'll be wearing a different dress??? If it's not different, will it be Pattie??? How is it that Pattie gets newspapers delivered to her when it is clearly not suppose to happen. Are the lunatics running the asylum??? I thought Emily was overly modest over the bikini. Geez....it's more coverage than Pink's Grammy outfit.

I think that Nick and Sharon will reunite in Paris. After she finds out how Adam has betrayed her, she will leave for Paris. Nick will join her later. Just wishful thinking on my part!

We all got this flu stuff with throwing up and very strong nausea. Nora started this, andd we all felt so sorry for her, we hugged her and loved her,and comforted her and guess what? We were getting the cooties too when we did that. It's passed thru everyone except my younger son.My husband is now back in bed sleeping and it's 9:16 am.
Does anyone else think Ashley is overacting a bit? Seems like Abby is the most mature of any of these crazy adults. I guess Sharon must have an attorney on retainer for her divorces. Wonder if they'll hire back Estella when the secrets all fall out.WHy would Estella go back? OH now there's a story.

Can't stand Daisy. Lauren is so gullible, inviting her to move in. Doesn't really know her. I hadn't thought of it, but if Daisy is so poor, how is she going to Walnut Grove? One of you mentioned that, I missed it. Guessed the writers did too.

Thank you NC, I think you just diagnosed something for me! I was anemic during my pregnancy. I've been having heart flutters, heart palpitations, whatever they are called, lately. (When it feels like you can feel your heart beating in your throat and it seems like it skips a beat). And I'll bet it's because I'm still a bit anemic because I only eat meat about once every few months. So I'm going back to my old remedy which is more spinach and raisins, and molasses in my tea.

Dayna: Welcome! The inconsistencies drive me crazy! Ashley is so certain of her memory of the purple cloth, yet she doesn't remember NOT giving birth????
If Adam finds out that the plan was Nick's idea, he'll probably turn the tables and work in favor of Tucker....maybe.
Cactus: I know what you mean about Phyllis. She, nor anyone else, knows that Adam switched the baby. What they DO know about him, the diary, isn't really any worse than things Victor or Jack have done. Again, inconsistency. They write it as if everyone knows what Adam has done.
The whole Adam story was bad from the get-go. No way would Hope have raised a child like that. Daniel, who had an absentee mother and was neglected by his rock star dad turned out to be a perfect, moral person and all the other kids with questionable parentage, with bad role models, all turn out great, but Adam, who's mother was a saint, gave him complete love and attention and took him to church every Sunday, he turns out to be a loathsome sociopath. I don't think so. Only Sheila could raised someone so de-void of morals.

I agree with Willie on the whole sending Eden to Paris without any checking...but i didnt see a secret call from Cane??? Hmmm except for last year when he was talking to Philip (who by the way didnt seem to create much stir in a family who has been missing their son/grandson for years).
What i have found more outrageous than the Eden thing, is that Ashley wouldnt know that she never delivered a baby. For someone like her...you think regular dr. appts would have been standard!??

I haven't been posting lately because I really don't have anything to say- which is unusual for me! But when I tried to delete the chatroom today, my computer refused to do so, hence I might as well post something before I do a switchoff shutdown.
Sending Eden off to France without doing any checking on the validity of the invitation and the background of the people who sent it is something that could only happen on a soap. But what bothers me the most about the current situation is the mysterious phone call Cane made. I want to believe he's a good guy for Lily and that they will be happy with their offspring but the PTB keep throwing in this crap to make us leery. It seems as if hidden agendas are the stock-in-trade on this show.

Adam sure plays his role well.....God I can't stand him!!!!
Looks like things are going to start moving along with Daisy, Ryder, the baby & Adam.....maybe all our complaining about the sick and rotten storylines is workings. I still say hurry up and give Nick and Sharon their baby back.
Imagine the "real" punch Victor will give Adam then, and wait until Nick gets his hands on him. Thought it pretty out of whack that Nick did not step in to protect his father who just had a heart transplant when Adam threw the punch at Victor. Even if their all in a conspiracy together....made me think Nick knows about the Victor/Adam arrangement.
All the kids should get out of Genoa City....maybe somebody should bring the Pied Piper in.....surely he would lead them to a better place than their screwed up families. Oh well,, blood is thicker than water.
Why do they always play Phyllis as so "Lusty"., she acts like she is 16 around guys. I suppose they think it is sexy....seems more sick, now there's a storyline send her off to the sex rehab clinic Tiger is at and she can solve the mystery of the golf club smashed windows.

Without sufficient shovels, heavy enough coats, boots, proper car cleaning for ice/snow, and some roads not sufficiently cleared, just getting out to purchase such things seems impractical. At one time we had snow shovel, salt, bags of sand (weight for traction), long ice scrapers, and...well, you get the picture. Someone convinced my mom to toss the stuff ten years ago. Boy, learning the hard way, eh?

It is COLD here in Maine, but warmer than yesterday when the winds made it 25 below at times. It was 21 above this afternoon.
I went to see Leap Year today and enjoyed it, loved the scenery of Ireland. It is the only country I ever thought I would really love to travel to if I could travel to any. I love the traditions, the sound of the Irish language, the music and dance of the country and the people. I once expressed that sentiment to a professor at the college I work at who was visiting from Ireland and he took me by the arm and walked me to the window to look out on the green lawn with the rain coming down and said '"you don't even know it, but you are already there"!
One thing I love about working at the college with all the young people from all over the world, the accents, the different types of clothing, the countries that I will never see, but through the smiles and eyes of these young people I know that we are all the same in all the ways that count.

For the first time, I have sympathy for Abby. She's acting out her insecurities. Victor's response to Noah that he is just "too young" to understand doesn't help Noah's angst. This is a life lesson on how adult decisions can effect young lives with lasting negative effects.
Sharon is the blind one in that marriage. Give your head a shake, girl.

Ok lets see if I can sort out the whole Tucker, Kay, Brock situation: Kay was from a wealthy family she married Gary Reynolds who was Brock's dad. Brock and Gary were in Europe and Kay had an affair with her husband's best friend Judge Arthur Hendricks. Being afraid of loosing her husband she gave her baby after it's birth to her friend Charlotte Ramsey who was to give it up for adoption. Brock's dad died and Brock and his mom became estranged after she remarried Philip Chancellor 11 and Brock left(with his inheritance) to party it up while attending college. Brock finally got his life together and he and Kay got back together, although knowing what she had done behind her first husband's back and never knowing the child she gave up and the hurt she had brought Brock caused her to turn to the bottle only to have that create more problems for her (affairs with the stable boys) while married to Philip and became a lonely spiteful woman who employed Jill to be her companion who ended up having an affair and falling in love with Kaye's husband.
So Tucker if he is Kaye's child would have to be younger than Brock so perhaps that is why they switched actors since the other Tucker looked older than Brock.I think at first they met to have Tucker step in as a business man in place of Victor if his contract couldn't be worked out and then when it was they changed things to have him be Kaye's child.

NC - Yes, Adam's eyesight HAS improved, hasn't it? I always thought Adam had "convenient blindness", where he'd see where and when he wants to see and feigns blindness to excuse what he doesn't. Admittedly, I think I do that with my memory gaps, sometimes; but that's my own way of excuse sometimes; "Well, I have a bad memory, you know." Sigh.
Mary Beth - Always enjoy your insight. It may be possible, though I dislike the thought, that Tucker could be another of Victor's sons, since, as you noted, Tucker's cold business practice shows he's fruit
"fallen not far from the tree" as they say. Or he could just be a bastard, as they also say (taken to mean as you'd like). Nonetheless, he's shrewd, like Victor.

Ah, love goes were it's sent. Seems Sharon is so enamored with Adamthat she can't see him for who Victor describes he is (provided the Vic's descriptions are true, and not emotionally driven, as by anger).

During the past three years, we were just friends who ran into each other a few times and had a few four hour long telephone conversations that brought closure on the earlier time in our lives.

LadyBug : Agree w/ what you said about Catherine's major concern (not being her long lost son or his welfare). This Daisy chick has to be plucked out of the story somehow....She's necessary for the drama but she's unsettling to viewers who know the truth about her...the framing of Eden for her deeds is taking too long to disprove. Oh, and Mr. V - His first and only tactic is to get Jabot before all else, it seems. Even before his friend Catherine's company concerns. Sad.
rc smiley
VaBch, VA - Thu Jan 28 14:55:45 MST 2010
Adam must have had an "Amazing Grace" moment...he was blind but now can see.....
So Victor is outraged that Tucker stole Katherine's company, yet doesn't hesitate to try to get Jabot again.
Can't Katherine have one mother/son conversation with Tucker without it being about her precious company? She has yet to show the slightest curiosity about him and his life. Like, by the way.....were you married, do you have any children....do I have grandchildren?
I like Abby better as a bad girl drunk. I hope they stay with the story. At least it's real...not like the Daisy craziness. If she's poor, why is she going to Walnut Grove? Why doesn't she go to public school with the other po' folk so she can fit in. So ridiculous that Lauren believes every word she says but then believes Eden is stalking her, even though this stuff shows up the same day Daisy moves in.

Hi, gang!
You know, I thought for weeks that Adam had "convenient blindness", the kind in which he was blind when it was convenient for him not to see properly or to see only what he wants to admit. But now, as many of you have said, Adam sight appears unimpaired. No banging into walls, no groping around (except for....), and he stares directly into the eyes of his father in his anger before he storms out the door.
Adam has also noticed, I heard, that Sharon nestles more with Ashley's baby than he'd like to see.
...to be continued...

Watching Y&R I actually forget that Pattie and Emily are the same person, actress wise. So, I guess that makes her a very good actress.
Billy, very cute and sexy. (Although Chance is more my type....if I were 20 years younger....LOL!) He, Billy, emotes too much for my taste, but is still an excellent actor. I predict he'll go places.
I'm hating the Daisy story more and more. I think it was very irresponsilbe of Amber to give her a job recommendation (which caused Lauren to hire her) when she (Amber) only knew her for five minutes.

Now that Adam has jumped to the Tucker side, maybe, somehow, all his evils will come to light and Victor will iron all his suspicions about Adam like a 'press on' sticker and put Adam in the can. What do ya think?
We all know that Daisy poisoned Lauren and that's why Lauren has those headaches. It was an eye-opener, but no surprise, that Daisy is making Eden take the fall for all those crimes Lauren saw in Eden's looseleaf. Why? Is it just for a dislike of Eden?
Can't wait 'til we see nutty Patty looking like Emily. BTW, the actress as Patty/Emily I think is doing a fine job.

I'm confused by the Katherine story. Are we suppose to feel sorry for her? She seemed unfairly cruel to Jill as did Nikki. Katherine may have been a drunk when she had Tucker, but she's been sober many years and has had the money and resources to find him. Even now that she knows he's her son she is not interested in what happened to him after she dumped him and what his life was like when he grew up. She accused Jill of having a cash box for a heart...where is her heart? Didn't Victor snatch Jabot out from under the Abbots? Doesn't Chancelor own Jabot now? So, taking over other companies seems the norm. When Katherine decided to go public with her stock, instead of selling it to family and friends she sold it to Tucker. Now those family and friends are rallying around her as if she's an earthquake victim. And....shouldn't Brock be in Haiti helping people who actually need it??

Friction in the Newman family; N Sr. chides both sons and Adam resigned post in Newman. Was this because he felt Victor didn't think he came up to par? Or did he think the truth might come out about his relationship with Sharon that hinged on his own guilt? Nick grinned a bit when Adam walked out, did ya notice?
The Duchess feels so betrayed; Jilly tucks in the sheets with Tucker,
who, btw, bought out his mother Katherine's blessed company, so that Kate feels doubly betrayed. Don't know who to feel more sorry for. Tuck, it seems has no care for anyone but...you know,,,himself. By the way, when does this new Tucker appear?

re: newman family drama: it is so wierd for me to watch the anguish on nick's face bacause i was in a very similar place a year ago. i worked for my family and there were always people (not siblings, which really made it even worse) who thought if they could just bring me down then they could have my position as the "heir apparent." it was horrible! but the thing that made it so bad is that my parents knew what was going on and would take their side because they were afraid they would leave. this went on for years. these people would steal from my family and everything--very evil. i became so angry that i just couldn't live with myself anymore so i finally left my career and moved to new york. the hardest thing i ever had to do (that didn't concern death). anyway, i guess i needed to vent. i am still in therapy over the whole ordeal. thanks.

Mary, I didn't see anything about the hair dye toilet. Someone else came up with that, just speculating how they would do it with the room Patty is in. I mentioned the dark roots showing, thinking maybe that was going to be a lead in to the Patty, Dr. P switch.
Sorry if you thought we saw that happening.

rc: Sorry about your mom and hope she recovers quickly.
I, too, missed the hair dye scene.
Is anyone besides me feeling sorry for Jill? Catherine really lambasted her with her past failures.
Let's take a vote on Brangelina ... are the split rumours true? (Not that we haven't been hearing them ever since they got together.) I vote for them being true this time. I think Brad was just an ordinary nice guy and didn't know what he was getting into.

We are guessing about how the switch we think will happen will go down. We are just GUESSING these things. Maybe we could be writers. I think we were wondering if there will be a switch. I would love it if they came up with a better scenario than what we expect.

Brown Crayons for hair color change in - - - a toilet? Boy, I'm sorry I missed Friday's ep; Was busy with Mom needing First Aid and the Emergency Triage unit after she cut her RT Leg (calf) when she closed the car door. Blood ran like a faucet as she attempted to stop it while she cried and in pain. Took 15 stitches to close the torn skin and keep it elevated. I have to take care of her for a few days. (Sorry I wrote too much)

Mary W: I would always chose my child or grandchild over anyone or anything. With Katherine, even now she chooses her company/power/money over her adult child. He has reason to be resentful.
We should be so lucky as to have Pattie take off to Puerto Rico! I see Emily waking up in the padded cell trying to convince everyone of who she is to no avail. Her craziness will cause them to up her meds. And Pattie having a great time planning the wedding with Jack. And Jack....well, he apparently makes love in the dark and has never seen either naked. Otherwise he would know it was Pattie by the shape, size and color of her....never mind.
Toots: Your weather sounds like ours. Haven't left the house all day. I like to walk too, but I'm a fair weather walker.
It's so funny here in the south. When it snows, which is about once per winter, people walk around with umbrellas!!!

LOL toots, it's cold and windy here today. I just had some orange spice tea, and pretended you were here sharing. It's soo good on a chilly day, i remember you said you liked it too. Nice that you have good neighbors. I can't say mine are bad, but everyone is kind of aloof. We are the oldest and they have teenage and baby issues.
Hair thing in the toilet was a hoot. Hope TPTB will catch a hint here about that. I wondered if you could melt brown crayons(on a lightbulb) and add rubbing alchohol and dye your hair with that. You know what I think will happen. They will have Patty knock Em over the head, then switch clothes...including a warm winter hat that will cover her hair. She'll get in a cab having taken Em's purse and ID, catch a plane and disappear in Puerto Rico.

Laughed at the coloring hair in the toilet. However, I haven't ever seen a toilet in that room. Ha
I'm convinced they'll do something like that for the switch. Don't know how they will make it seem real. Ha, like very much does seem real.
I agree about sending a 15 to Paris to someone who just writes a letter and says come visit. I would think Michael would have the person checked out. He know people everywhere.
Oh well, I won't miss her. The only thing I like about her is that she doesn't trust Daisy. Got that one nailed!

Mary Beth I'm a winter lover because I hate being hot so I love Colorado cold winters, I'm actually a bit disappointed it hasn't snowed more this winter.
ladybug I laughed out loud when I read "Stealing hair dye and drugging Emily and dying her hair in the toilet, blonde, and her own hair dark brown" because I thought, and this of course can all be easily done in a maximum security mental ward on a soap!
Oh and of course the workers are not checking Patty's mattress and finding the in-plain-sight hole with all the pills in it.
Sometimes I wonder why we all keep bothering to point out all the unreal-isms on the show, it's getting quite monotonous isn't it.
And ladybug, once again, our brainwaves have crossed paths and we are thinking the exact same thought when watching the same scene. ITA with you about the so-called justification for Mrs. C giving up her baby. If she gave up a baby for a man, nooooo way would I ever do that. Of course, this is an opinion coming from someone who is not in a loving relationship; I'm sure there are many women in real life who would pick their husbands over their child--personally, for me, IMO, I just couldn't imagine doing that. Because, I mean, that's your BABY, it is a part of you!
JMHO
PS...brings up VERY interesting issue though, who would you pick if you had to, your mate or your child?? Hope no one in real life ever has to make that decision.

The hair thing and the Patty switch is a storyline I hope works in an interesting way. It's amazing to me who the dark roots on the wig make it look so much more real. Maybe Patty will just run away and she'll be OUT THERE for a while. I don't care how we get rid of her, but just get her outta there. I read that Noah needs to take a break because he's on some kids show. Wonder how they'll do that.
It was a good mystery that Auntie thought Eden asked for the visit and Enden though Auntie asked for the visit. It's a real Willie mystery going on here. Why in jahosephat would anyone send a 16 year old to Paris to an unknown auntie without a very long telephone conversation? Wouldn't that little mix up come out of the shortest inquiry? Perhaps the happy couple will come back to H.S. graduation and off to college story( a tad quick aging story. remember when Nick and Sharon were goofy hs kids then goofy college kids in about 3 weeks.
Another quick kick to the curb would be Ryder and his mean girl sister.
The grocery story mags say the truth will soon be out about which baby mama belongs to Faith.
Love the idea of Vic wanting his house back. I like that fight.
MaryBeth

Susan: I was speculating myself about Patty Cake's roots. How the heck is she going to pull the switch off. Maybe she'll complain about the roots and ask the hospital to arrange to have her hair dyed. That might be too logical. Stealing hair dye and drugging Emily and dying her hair in the toilet, blonde, and her own hair dark brown....that might be more consistent with the craziness.
I also saw the pic of nuTucker. I like his looks. I think he's a little too gentle looking to take on both Victor and Jack. The current Tucker seems to be patterned after the Branson billionaire, who like Tucker created Virgin records and Virgin Airline, with a shaggy head of gray hair that looks better when accompanied with a sexy British accent. NuTucker may be more of a Bill Gates type...nerdy, glasses and pocket protector.

- Sat Jan 23 09:19:43 MST 2010
Did anybody notice Patty's dark roots showing more than before? Maybe they are making it look like her hair is going to be dark so they can explain her changing places with Dr. P. Maybe her dark roots will grow as fast as some of the kids on the show do!! Ha! That way they can switch her with Dr. P.
I saw a picture of the guy that is going to be the new Tucker. To me, he looks much younger than the current Tucker, therefore, looks too young for Jill. Will make it look like she is sleeping with someone young enough to be her son! Oh well, we know that is possible, on soaps, especially!!
Susan
Ruidoso, NM - Sat Jan 23 08:39:27 MST 2010
Didn't see Y&R today, but I know Thad, er, JT, leaving Victor under bad terms while also disconcerting his wife is not good, as he pursues work with Tucker, whose validity as a Chancellor is still in question. BTW, if DNA tests prove he is, in fact, Kay's long lost son, will Chancellor Industries really end up in his hands? Or will Brock enter town and clean up the problem?

I'm racking my brain trying to think of some happiness on Y&R...nope...can't think of anything.
It's odd to me that Nikki, in trying to make Katherine feel better, said "if you would have kept the baby, you would have lost everything". In my world...a baby IS everything.

MaryBeth: I read another interview with Eric where he singled out "Sharon" "Adam" and "Nikki" as three people who warmly welcomed him back to Y & R. But, yes, also mentioned for the most part people just do their thing and go back to their dressing rooms. I guess actors do it all the time, make out with someone and then "Cut!" Of course, lots of reel romances do cross over into real romances.
Channel surfing came across "The Dog Whisperer" working with Eileen Davidson (Ashley Abbott). Lovely outgoing personality, hunky husband, three kids (possibly blended family), gorgeous mansion, pool, outdoor kitchen, grounds, etc. Unfortunately, only caught the last five minutes.
Ahead: Great acting by "Catherine", but she should give Jill a chance to tell her side of the story. Felt sorry for Jill.

So sorry MaryW, about the little reminders. I know it happens when you lose a loved one. My dad had been gone for months and one day I picked up the phone to call him for advice. That was kind of a shock when the lightbulb went on. Aren't you sick of the chilly weather? I know we chose to live here, but there's usually more warm sunny days between the storms.

I always think of the Newman home as "The Ranch" and Kaye's home as "The Mausoleum" or "The Chancellor Estate" and Jack's home as "The Abbott Home", a nice, big, older home with lots of amenities, yet not quite a mansion.

Interesting how the former Newman house is always referred to as "the mansion." Of course they can't have a huge set, but the house never looks mansion-like to me. As a comparison, you can rather imagine Catherine's house as a mansion.
How can Victor so easily reverse a decision signed, sealed and delivered in a divorce decree?
I really like JT standing up to Victor and great lines. Didn't know he had it in him. Will certainly drive a further wedge between him and Victoria, though.

MaryBeth : Really like your comments today. Nikki's hair color, though shocking at first,I guess, looks relaxing now. Maybe because it's her real color, and not so stark, bright, and bleached. Well, that aside....
Hi everyone >
> Interesting how Nikki said that Victor being away was considered to bring the family together, but rather drew it apart. As both he and she said, "The king should be in his castle, etc." So I think maybe Victor's return will bring some order into the GC families. Maybe ( just maybe) this big dinner will accomplish that.
> Emily's coordinating her wedding with Jack while her patient's having a neural breakdown. Patty can't forget the past....she's fixated on a failed relationship she can't fix (pun?).
> Seems Phyllis wants Nick all for herself. What is it with Phyllis? She wants Nick all for herself w/o distractions from job, aberrant family members, or anything else, but the goal seems unrealistic. Ecclesiastes says there is a time for this and a time for that. She seems to want it all for herself. She appears even to dislike her father in law's loving care for her daughter. She wants Nick and everything connected all for herself. This spells trouble. I'm sure you women understand divided relationships, but don't you think Phyllis is a little obsessive/compulsive about this?
> Funny how, as the Vic discourses the importance of family over all (and I agree), Smilin' Jack walks in. Patty Williams' doctor is treating Jack as well as Patty, no?
Anyway, all of you be well....Glad to hear about Mr.P

Regarding Niki's hair, it seems to look better than when she first appeared with the brown mop thing. Seems like they've given her some highlights. When women darken their hair, I like to see the change more gradual, with darker base and more lowlights. The thought about wigs is interesting. Her blond locks were very over processed.I hope they put her in less sausage-ie style outfits, sometimes I wonder how the little lady breathes. Phyllis and Sharon and Lauren can do those close fitters nicely.
What's up with the trip to Paris? wonder who Eden's Auntie will be?YR always has people related just toooo conveniently. Who that we know is really missing right now? Would this be the sister of her mother or her father? Is her mother still out there? I notice that Eden wears lots of coats and jackets and sweaters, but her dress yesterday had such a pretty boarder print. She just isn't so annoying to me as some of you others. Many actors now have speech impediments that seem okay as the world changes.
I'm hoping the dated Newaman Ranch house..big house...will get some refurbishing. Isn't it dreadfully sagging? Lots of housing stuff now,no one is living in Nick and Sharon's house, and Phyllis wants to move off the ranch, and SHaron burned down Brad's place.Is anyone in the NEwman penthouse? Also are we supposed to believe that the magnificent bouquets of flowers at Katherine's, Victors, and Abbots are real? Are we supposed to believe these millionaires would display such arrangements in silk?

Ladybug - I think you've hit it on the head with the Yummy Tea for Lauren. I thought maybe I had missed a show or something and couldn't figure out what was going on with her. I bet your right.
Hate Nicki's hair but it does look more like a wig to me - just plonked on top of her head and looks like she just came through a major wind storm.
Please, Please, stop showing Billy with booze, don't make him the next Y&R Alcoholic - he's too much fun for that.
Talk about cheap Assistant DA - though Billy appears to have enjoyed himself!!!!! They must rent those rooms by the hour!
Daisy plays her role so well, she is quite menacing.
For all the graces Victor has had in life he doesn't seem to learn from his own experiences. You'd think he'd have a bit more on his mind than being evil and mean after a heart transplant. Tucker could be the next Mr. Menace - me thinks Jack is past it.
Love to see Catherine get all fired up - go girl, give them a run for their money.

I guess it's common sense to think Daisy has it in for Lauren, though for reasons only writers can imagine. How could a smart business woman and mother like Lauren just say, "Ok," when Daisy hands her this cup of tea she made, knowing the type of girl she is (or did she?)
Can anyone suppose what the blood test will show for Mt. T? (Tucker)
I think it's swell that Amber and Daniel patched things up; they are really meant for each other.
Now with Eden off to, what is it? Paris, that opens mean doors for Daisy to walk through and havoc other lives. What if her "puppet master" (Sheila?) is taken care of...what then?

Well, the Vic is taking over again. Hopefully he does this for all to benefit. Hope is good.
As Tucker tries to string in Hellstrom into his web, does JT realize he'll be at Mr.T's disposal only to gather info on T's sharking exploits?
I see that Billy Boy fell for Heather's hotblooded ways. Even though it was his idea, she is the "love 'em and leave 'em" type herself. But she may get him just the information he wants (info that might do good, btw)
It's a real shame what's happening in Haiti, but I hope the U.S. military can establish order as well as physical assistance to the devastated, impoverished area. Getting the guns out of looters' hands and overseeing the different military installations operating there.

Hi, everybody. How's the weather where everyone is? Ok here, 39degrees and cloudless til Thursday.
How is Mr. Pinkie?
Y&R : I heard that Victor demoted both his sons for their pugilistic actions, and Phyllis is not to happy with Victor nearby. I say, too bad.
Sharon's starting to ask too many questions? Hmmm. Questions of Ashley, who' s seeing too mush of Neil? Ahem. Are these writers grabbing at straws for material again? Sorry if this offends anyone.
Oh yes, this Tucker guy buys out Chancellor? Is this because he's her son? I thought Kay never mentioned sons in her heritage.
> Well, if anyone knows answers to these questions I'd appreciate it.
(maybe I'll see some tomorrow.)

adb - we agree again about Y&R. Other than the end, it was FF for me. You know I turn on the TV sometimes and other soaps are playing, and I think, how korny. And since I haven't seen Y&R for some time, it looked the same way....korny. So obviously I'm over Y&R.
Finally warming up here.

The new Tucker is going to be played by Stephen Nichols who used to play on Days of Our Lives and General Hospital, the article I read says that his first air date on Y & R will be Jan. 27.
Prayers to all those in Haiti and to all of their loved ones who are hoping for word of their fate.

Loved Friday's show. That's what a good story is suppose to be. Logical and surprising. It's why we watch soaps. Too bad they used Katherine's real life son, Corbin Bernsen, to be Paul's priest brother. He would have been very believable as Kay's son...LOL!

The fight scene in Nick's office could've been better, but it was good to see Victor back. Not sure what to make of the Tucker character....is he really Kay's long lost son/daughter(made to look like a 'son')? Maybe Adam will get his head handed to him.

Can't wait for next week. Maybe Adam is finally going to get what's coming to him.

Cactus : I guess I have a thing against rag mags....sorry, that was an incorrect statement. Yes, he does have his facts, but he gathers them like the mags
This episode was GREAT. Adam slugs Nick, and I think, "Oh no, don't mess with Nick, he'll..." and he does. He plows into his face and pushes Adam to the wall for another sock, then....they both turn their heads. It's the Vic! He'll probably grind them both for this next week. (I would have liked a better fight scene, though)
Ashley and Sharon, I don't know...they're gonna find too much in common with the baby and maybe figure it out themselves; that the late Doc Taylor had little to do but go along with Adam's plot, which is eating his conscience.
JO-Jo and this Tucker character...well, I guess next week.

Virginia Beach, VA - Fri Jan 15 20:37:06 MST 2010
Cactus, another big goof, right? And now one even worse: Tucker reveals he is the sole owner of the firm being merged into Chancellor Industries. If Neil and/or Catherine did their "due diligence" before accepting the offer, they would have had to know how many stockholders there were. It is totally unbelievable that a wholly-owned company could have passed itself off as publicly traded, I think, although I'm not an expert on mergers, etc. And I don't see how Catherine's majority ownership could be so easily eliminated. Why would she have had to turn over any of her shares in order to do the merger? Of course, now that Tucker is Catherine's son, this isn't all that big a deal, right? So the long-lost child wasn't a girl, after all, or did Tucker have a sex-change operation? And now, here comes Victor, breathing fire at Nick and Adam both! Whee-away we go!
Willie
- Fri Jan 15 16:26:31 MST 2010
rcsmiley: I disagree, unlike trash mags, Billy does expose the truth. Of course, who would want their dirty laundry there for all to see.
I was taken off guard by Neil and Ashley. Wasn't that a little fast? Ashley is the "good girl" which tends to make her boring at times. Neil is so ho hum, will we want to watch these two together?
WIllIE: I was wondering if you were noticing the details of the fight. Here they are in ... what was it called the other day ... a billion dollar conglomerate? and they don't have a first aid station? Adam was using what I see around my house from time to time, a Ziploc bag with ice cubes. And Nick? Newspaper wrapped around something held on his chin. Surely they can afford a decent icepack.
I truly didn't see it coming that Ashley and Sharon would start comparing notes. I like it.
I have decided I DO NOT like Nikki's dark hair. It really ages her. I think one problem is that it is a solid colour. She needs low lights at least. On the other hand, I love Jill's haircut and Cane's new "do" as well. Are Adam and the new "redhead" Heather going to have a fling while Victoria is away? And JT and Mac back together? Now she is having twins, couldn't she keep one?
JEAN: You missed Billy and Rafe, but any scene he is in keeps me glued.
Cactus
Alberta, Canada - Fri Jan 15 14:55:01 MST 2010
Billy is going to add to his list of enemies...printing trash articles based on nonsense information (like Esquire and People, no?)
Like I said earlier, Ashley and Sharon (dumb & dumber? lol) should pull off Adam's arms for what he did. But could Sharon do that to her lover?
When will those in the Chancellor clan find out Tucker and Jo-Jo?
Adam's tale of Adam and Dr. Taylor aren't holding water with everyone, including Nick and Adam knows it.
The insurance companies are going to have a 'field day' resulting from this earthquake in Haiti. I bet the paperwork will mount. I am sincerely sorry for, and am praying for, the sufferers of this disaster. It is indeed devastating.
Adam's guilt is going to eat him.

Pinkie - always a pleasure to read your posts. You are so uplifting, even with not so good news. Thoughts are with you and Mr. P.
Found out my personal trainer is into cage kick boxing!!! Blew me away. He seems so mind and shy. I knew he had a wild side, but he never told me this. (about everything else). When he moved recently I got a new trainer. He told me my old trainer came in one morning beat to a pulp!! He got called in and said you can't work here and come in looking like that. Wow, I was in shock.
Later - cold again here, but not freezing.
American Idol - forgot to mention the last contestant, the older man that sang "pants on the ground". I peed my pants. And then Randy got up dancing and singing with him. Priceless. It was in USA Today that he will be on The View on Monday. He is getting hundreds of calls.

Dint Insurance adjusters come out the day of the Fire/Flood with a check so you can have a place to live? Hotel/Motel??? .. Stupid Stupid writers .. Oh ASSMAN 1 teeny tiny step forward and off the cliff backwards to going back to being the despicable Slime ball .that you chose to become.Everyone here knew that Dr Taylor would never be allowed to tell the truth to Dumb & Dumber!! But when this all hits the fan Duck cause its going to fly for a LONGGGGGG time .. or it should if the writers do this right...
I believe that Daisy is suppose to be Sheila's Daughter the way they are having her be so cold hearted and EVIL...
Billy I do want you to take ASSman down but not before Dumb& Dumber get a hold of him and gouge out his eyes . Both of those woman should have nervous break downs , You would hope that they would have Ashley really go over the deep end when she has to give t he baby back and scream for days for ever allowing herself to stick up for him.. and Sharon!! she slept with him EEEEwwwwwwwww ..
Think they are trying to redeem Phylis ? by having her play sleuth and solve Dr T's demise?? where's Paul when you need him !!! the whole Jo Jo story boring and how many times will Katherine be taken advantage of? remember Marge?? Stupid Yawn & Repeat!! (Y&R)
How long is Lily going to wear that STUPID ski hat Oh Writers we can tell her hair is under their ... She is Pg in real life...
re Idol... I dont miss Paula she was on way to many happy pills for me I HATED how she always interrupted Simon when it was his turn to speak.. As for Ellen I Like her nothing to do with her sexual orientation .. (My brothers gay) I know she knows a good singer when she hears one . and will be fair to them.... and It seems everyone is being a little mean to the Already knew they couldn't sing contestants.. all the Judges know that they pass the bad singer through for shock value ..
it also seemed like they spent to much time on certain undeserving contestants .. JMHO..

Just noticed on MSNBC news that the Dominicans are sending in armies for assistance. Why I don't know, but, some Haitians trying to enter the Dominican border were turned back; yet, the D-R is "doing its best", sending in supplies, water, and medical personnel to assist.
The USS Comfort, a Red Cross ship, stationed here in Hampton Roads, along with the USS Bataan, USS Carter Hall, USS Fort McHenry, with 8,000 sailors to assist in earthquake relief efforts in Haiti. Makes one feel proud to be in a Navy town, in addition to the Marine Expeditionary Force in NC.

Billy Boy's trying to become the "People Page" cub reporter of the year with this magazine of his. We'll see how many enemies he makes. Thought it was great how expressionless Mac faced up to Jo-Jo about lifting stuff (like hers) from Kay's house. Wasn't finding out Tucker was in on Jo-Jo's ploy from the beginning?

Back to the baby thing, Ashley didn't know Dr. Taylor delivered Sharon's baby. Does Sharon know that Adam delivered Ashley's baby? If she finds out, wouldn't she wonder why he had never told her? I am hoping that these two women will be the ones to bust Adam eventually, as they are the ones who have ... and will be ... the most traumatized by him.

I'm sure a lot of you have seen or know this already. Mister "I've changed my life" Adam tells Dr. Taylor how much he now loves Sharon but Taylor retains his injured conscience, threatening to tell Sharon the story, when Adam shakes him and pushes him into a bus**BANG**. What d'you know...Phyllis, who hates Adam, sees this from the street. Will this spell Adam's end on the show?
Emily seems to have given Jack the best advice regarding he and Sharon. Read the chapter...STAY AWAY FROM SHARON. There is a term for his behavior, his "...but I need to help her" behavior. Alcoholics, I told, are given similar advice. We'll find out later in the month what Jack reads in Emily's chapter of that book.
(And) it looks like the typical "blame game" between Nick and Sharon.
Ladybug, you're right...teenagers are going to have sex (at least experiment).

Interesting on "Bold and the Beautiful" that Hope shows up after being "unstairs" for quite a long time. And now she is about 16. Well...yes, Hope is Deacon's daughter who was born AFTER Little "D".

I did the same thing with the same result, MaryBeth-they only ran that crawl about our opinions that one day, looks like they're screwed up yet again.
rcsmiley, don't recall ever taking batteries indoors out of the weather but I haven't had much exposure to batteries, except in flashlights. I guess you-all are referring to car batteries, anyway.
I was ready to have Adam stab or strangle the good doctor, but pushing him in front of a car in a fit of rage works quite well. But now Adam has a Phyllis problem that won't go away easily.
What Eden should have done with the card- wait until Daisy is in the coffee shop with others around and just sneakily slide it onto the counter in front of her. She would see it, recognize it, think she dropped it and put it in her purse. Bingo!
And of course, the good doctor should have said nothing to Adam-NOT A WORD! Go direct to either Sharon or Ashley and confess. Bingo!
But it's a soap, where people almost NEVER do the logical, sensible thing but rather continually expose themselves to retribution!
If I had had the opportunity to express my opinion of Y&R, I would have said: Pretty good show that could be a lot better if the PTB would stop, think and make story lines a touch more realistic, so that viewers would have an easier time suspending disbelief. Make it take a little longer to buy and sell coffee shops, bars, and so forth. Make Chance a rookie cop instead of a detective, re-do the baby switch so that we wouldn't all be groaning at how simple and unbelievable it was. Show them bribing a nurse and/or doctor to get it done. Either give Victor some employees of his conglomerate empire in addition to a couple of family members, or tone him down into a more ordinary businessman. I could go on but my point is made-most of what happens here are things that are hard to stomach.

I don't know any more what is the U.S. show as all my Canadian & U.S. stations now show the same episode. Anyway, Billy Abbott fans, don't miss his interaction with Raul (seems that might not be his name, but the lawyer dude). I could have watched that scene about three times over. What a talented actor.
And the plot finally thickens with respect to Adam and Dr. Taylor. I didn't realize that Sharon and Ashley didn't know that the same doctor delivered both their children. I'm not sure why Phyllis has her nose in with Adam. You'd think she'd want his marriage with Sharon to work, not break it up. Dr. Taylor must have left some evidence somewhere in his home or office.
Even though I don't watch Ellen's show, from her reviews she apparently is a fairly decent judge. So we'll see!

I wasn't a big Idol fan...but without Paula and Simon I won't watch it at all. I like Ellen D very much but think she is wrong for the show. Wrong style, personality. I also don't get why someone who already has a hit show needs to do something else. Why not give that job to someone who doesn't have a job. This happens all the time. I think at one point Kelly Ripa had three things going. It seems greedy to me.
Daisy is starting to seem like a Sheila clone. A sociopath with no conscience. My money is on Ryder eventually ratting her out. Something weird is going on with Lauren, a subtle change of personality. I hope....HOPE!!! that they didn't have Sheila getting surgery yet again, to look like Lauren. That would finish it for me.
That wouldn't just be lazy, uncreative writing, based, mostly likely, on budget cuts, it would be an insult to viewers. I saw that crawl too where CBS is asking people for their input on Y&R. I bet they are already getting a lot of input. And I'm sure it's not good.

Do you folks think Ryder's gonna spill the beans on Daisy's torching of Colleen's place? We all know she hates Eden, but is that why she burned down the place? I guess we'll find out next month, lol.
Did you all notice how the baby quieted down in Sharon's arms? I think the only one who noticed was...Adam. Hmmm. And Adam seems nervous about staying in Ashley's house, doesn't he? We all know why, eh?
Phyllis just has that look of...oh, I don't know, complacent murder, when she thinks of Nick surrendering to his help of Sharon. If she can't trust her husband, she herself must be insecure, no?

Cactus - we are going to try to watch Idol. I know alot of you like Ellen, but I can't stand her. So we shall see. When Simon leaves I am too.

Once the baby switch storyline is resolved, I will be taking a break from Y & R for a time. Wish the characters would occasionally be "honest" -- like Amber hiding the fact she has a son from her husband.
Re The Bachelor, I won't be watching again now until the home visits.
Anyone still into "Idol"? Will it be the same without Paula AND Simon next year?

There was a crawler on my screen during yr yesterday asking viewers what they thought about yr?
Phyllis is sure getting, well she's in a mood that seems like she'll hurt someone. But someone was right, she'll be off with her babies soon. She must be over the moon.
Somewhere I read Victor might appear this week. WOnder if Nikki will still have the brown hair. Remember back a few years ago we were all complaining about the messy hair look all the actresses had going on?
The guy playing Kevin's new brother is so hard to read.Is that good acting or bad acting? I agree with all of you about Dr. Taylor baby switch. STOP the insanity! I'm so glad there was a fire at Brad's /Colleen's/Tracey's house. It needed a new sofa sooo bad, surely there was some smoke damage. That's 80's 90's look was looking a bit threadbare.
Is anyone else just OVER the Bachelor? Too much kissing of multiple lips is getting old.
MaryW hope you are getting comfort from your lovely cozy memories of Amy. Our granddog is a golden, getting on in years. He has been so sweet to Nora. They lay on the floor watching Yo Gabba Gabba together. He's her very furry pillow. Otto has had bad hips, and knees, even surgery once. The kids will be so devastated when Otto crosses the Rainbow Bridge.

Y & R: Of all the scenarios re the baby switch, I never figured on "the doctor" in the mix. I don't know about y'all, but I find this story now so inhumane! Sharon and Nick holding their OWN baby which just keeps their grieving fresh. I HATE this story line, please, please someone bring it to an end. I don't think the beans are going to be spilled for some time yet.
Interesting handling of the teenage sex issue. Not sure why Lauren flipped out as she did, though. Thinking of her past, possibly?

Warm thoughts to you all out there in Icicle, USA. NC, everyone's advice for you sounds great...stay warm.
Regarding Y&R - Found out today that as Noah's and Eden's abode burned up, Adam saved them from the fire. That should place him in a heroic stance with the Newmans and others, no? Oh yes, I also learned that the fire was started by none other than Daisy (maybe because Eden's had her pegged from the beginning). Ashley offered Adam and Sharon a place to stay at her house, now that they themselves have no place to stay (where, by the way, as I said, Sharon will hear Ashley's baby cry, stating similarities to her own, maybe claiming motherhood and ensuing a large fight), this all because of Ashley's good hearted nature. What will happen to Kevin and Janna's coffee shop?

Of course, batteries aren't made like they were 30-40years ago, so such a procedure as I just mentioned may not really be necessary. But, like I said, it's a suggestion. Does any one else concur? Willie?

Virginia Beach, VA - Sun Jan 10 19:01:00 MST 2010
NC - A suggestion...take the battery out, wrap it in a towel, and bring it in the house overnight just to keep it warm. If the water freezes the chemical reaction will fail, Keeping it warm prevents this, temporarily, of course. I remember doing that in NY on cold, cold nights.

Cactus, you are so right about Amber, just as big an idiot as Chance! This entire plot line is ridiculous. For one thing, Chance called in for backup and why would he ever do that if he was carrying around a bunch of drugs in his coat? I guess the cops figure that he threw his coat away to conceal the fact the drugs were in it. But he sure didn't hide it at all. It was found immediately in the area.
MaryBeth, I'm absolutely sure they'll pull the Patti-Emily switch! This stuff is all written and taped long in advance and it WILL happen! Damn it!
I'm unhappy that they seem to be tying stuff that happened on B&B with Y&R about Amber and Deacon's past relationship this way. A lot of us don't watch B&B. I did briefly see our Brad and former Victoria together. Looked weird.
Willie

Mary Maine : Does that mean Lily (the character) will pass away and leave Caine to mourn, for God knows how long (on this show, anyway)?
Regarding Amber's dilemma, it seems rather best to send Mr.Sharpe to jail and hire a detective to find out the whereabouts of Amber's (I guess, adopted) daughter so that Deacon isn't holding her over Amber's head as a bargaining chip. What do y'all think? Let's wrap this up, writers, eh?
>BTW, I think Amber really wants to clean up her questionable past.<
rc smiley
VaBch, VA - Sat Jan 9 13:53:19 MST 2010
sdunford,yes he was:The Bold and the Beautiful (2000-2005)
Deacon Sharpe debuted on the soap as the biological father of "Little Eric", a baby being raised by Rick Forrester and Amber Moore. The baby's biological mother is Amber's cousin, Becky. Amber passes the child off as her son with Rick. The truth is discovered and Deacon pursues custody of the child.
This launched a storyline that focuses on Deacon's romantic interest in Amber. He attempts to seduce her away from Rick for himself. The efforts are complicated by his relationship with Bridget Forrester. Although Deacon originally uses Bridget for one of his plots to get Amber, the couple's marriage becomes genuine. This is threatened when Deacon begins an affair with Bridget's mother, Brooke Logan. Brooke gives birth to their daughter, Hope. Deacon signs his rights to Hope over to Brooke's husband Ridge Forrester but his relationship with Bridget ends.
Deacon goes on to connect with other older female characters on the show; an affair with Jacqueline Payne Marone and a marriage to Macy Alexander. The character exits after relapsing back into alcoholism.
Connie, no nothing on up here in Maine, but I don't have cable. I did think of him this morning and saw a little thing on the news about Elvis Memorials in Australia. 75 doesn't seem possible!

M B - Thanks for the info on Reed. From the way sentences were worded in Thurs update he sounded like a teen, so I said, "Who is..."
For what its worth, and I get tired of the comments, Phyllis ought to just accept that Nick has a problem with his past, help him get over it so they can move on. Enough already.
Poor Sharon somehow acquired some cojones to rail on a previously happy Jack. What's with her, anyway? And Emily probably thinks, "What did I get myself into here?"
> Y'know, I just thought....Phyllis is too possessive. What do you think? <
I'm glad the writers are incorporating new stories. This Jo-Jo could turn out pretty good (maybe). Just hope Noah and Eden don't get fried...sorry. Lauren probably stepped on a tack.

What's the bet Jo Jo teams up with Chance to catch the crook. Surely we all know his Sgt. set him up. Jo Jo will also give Jill a run for her money and start to push her out as not a legitimate heir. Now wouldn't that screw Cane over with what he thinks ($$$) could be in his future. With the writing there has been Adam could still be redeemed because........this one is Cane's evil twin who has locked up Hopes sweet son on the farm in Kansas. The plan to either get in on the Chancellor or the Newman fortunes....Ha! Ha!
Poor Noah what a screwed up family he inherited.
The Nick and Philly thing is done - separate them and put us out of the on again off again misery.
Absolutely, time to shoot Adam in the foot or elsewhere. Hopefully Billy starts to question his (Adam) being at the funeral home, Sharon remembers the note on the plane and a few other things....for God sake writers enough is enough of this one.
No doubt something will happen to make Adam and Sharon move into the ranch. That way Y&R can cut down on a set. I heard they are looking to cut costs.
I am disgusted they had JT and Victoria have such a cool goodbye. Don't like the breakup plan there but there could be a fun relationship with the Billy Boy.

So, Katherine's real daughter shows up? Jo-Jo, huh? I understand Jill is none too happy. But I thought Jill wasn't Kay's real daughter anyway - what gives? It's wise, though, that Kay wants a DNA from Jo-Jo, 'cause who knows?
The (new) Malcolm also showed up, I heard, and was given a job at "Restless Style" by Billy. Oh, what now?
With the current goings on with JT, Victoria, and, who this....Reed?... it appears the writers are moving the stories in directions we didn't expect. Nick wishes them well?
Patty...I couldn't agree with you more. How much of this do they think we can take?
Yes, Cactus, Daisy is a villianess; I just can't figure out the reasons for her MO, or where exactly she's getting orders. Is it Sheila?
I guess we all agree the writers took a chance making Chance a cop. See what happened today?

ladybug: Re The Bachelor, every season now the girls come up with something to "impress" at the initial meeting. I don't think that should be allowed. They need to just be themselves. Also, I think Jake, although a "nice guy", seems too naive? - emotionally immature? - I just can't put my finger on it. As he says, he is looking for someone with "beauty of heart."
I think that Daisy is another villain-ess. She is acting on orders from someone (we assume Sheila) to persecute Lauren, but now seems to be acting simply out of vindictiveness to Eden. Or jealousy?
I was wondering how Sharon and Adam would end up living with Ashley ... now we know.

Have to add my two cents to the Chance ordeal. By ordeal I mean us having to watch it!!! When a police officer comes upon a man bleeding: A) Does he immediately call 911? B) Quiz him on why he's there? I think A. The bigger part of the ordeal is Heather. Once again...even though she has been consistently wrong about every case...she jumps full force on a false accusation. Yes, he has drugs in his pockets. But a twelve year old is capable of thinking of various ways that they got there and not jump to only one conclusion.
Anybody watching "The Bachelor"? I thought Jake picked some not-very-attractive girls first time around. Not that they need to be beautiful, but...geez! I really liked the national air guard girl. I can't believe he picked that nutcase Michelle. Maybe that's why he's still single...bad judgment.

Strange story now with Jo Jo. Can't imagine her and Katherine "bonding" any time soon. So what was the point of the story, writers?

rcsmiley, when they ran that episode showing Billy what his life would be like in the future if he didn't change, there was a scene where Kevin was kissing Mac as if she were his main squeeze. Janna wasn't in the episode as far as I recall. That whole episode was a little weird, a take-off on Scrooge's visit with his Christmases past and future.
I guess everybody on here is expecting the Patti-Emily switcheroo. Wouldn't it be nice if, for once, they surprised us and didn't foist that time-worn plot device on us?
They seem intent on showing us that Chance is an utter idiot. The guy who stabbed him asks for a private meet and he just goes merrily sailing all alone into a trap. Any rookie cop just out of the academy knows better than that. One more instance of the lack of any verisimilitude here.

I agree with you regarding Patty/Emily switch. Although your prediction of best friend info is pretty smart. I didn't think of that. They rarely toss in trivial info for no reason. The story already bothers me since Jack did have sex with both and are we to assume that Patty had her whole body surgically altered to look just like Emily??? At the risk of offending the men here, I won't detail how women's bodies all look different. Not to mention the fact that people make love differently.

But he is doing ok and Thats a Good thing ...
re Y&R .. can we all see it coming Patty is going to do the switch with Emily AGAIN!! and get her Jack back for a little while Ashley will figure it out .I say this because Emily said her best friend in Minesota couldnt make it or something I just drew a blank But that will be the proof when Patty wont know about the Best Friend.. Didnt read it just my O....
I Love Billy somethings about his smile that does me in .. Dont tell Mr P feel the cougar coming out in Me...
I cant put into words the disgust i feel for Adam & Sharon storyline. they are trying to redeem him !! Oh I hope Sharon beats him to a pulp and Ashley too and that Sharon doesnt forgive herself for being to STUPID!! Ashley needs to gouge out ASSmans eyes ..

The actress playing Patty/Emily is doing a terrific job. I noticed how Patty conjured a fake smile as Emily her doctor hugged her. At the start of that scene I suspected Paul would hear a scream an then find his sister standing over Emily with bloody scissors in hand. But not yet.
Willie- Kevin and Janna are splitting? And what the h*** does Kev see in Mac? > perish the thought <
That Adam always has an ulterior motive in everything he does, or plans to do. Even marriage to Sharon, which no one connected to the Newman name likes.
Now that Ashley has invited Adam & Sharon to live in her home, I wonder how long it will take 'til Sharon hears Ash's baby cry and thinks, "That's my baby, not hers!"
Chance cutting his bothers on the force could only work against him. As Willie noted, Chance is just too young.

Morning and winter has hit big time.The snow is falling fast, I have not ventured out for a week yesterday..Suppose to snow and be bad all week. One good thing I have had a cleaning out experience LOL.Have clean cupboards, drawers, closets etc. Have three large bags ready for Kidney foundation tomorrow. IF all goes as planned will fill two more today.TIs a wonderful feeling to help others,plus less for my family to go through when I am no longer here.
Y&R: The new Malcom ? Do not care for. Hate seeing JT and Victoria go seperate ways.Ashley and Neil??Hope not. I think Billy will sober up and shape up!! Chloe and Chance cute together.. Mrs. C and Murph are soooo good together.The best...
Well enough of this I must hit the hall closet...:O)

Oh, and Debs - I agree with you about Adam (if only his mother could see him now). Hope the writers think of something.
Mac indeed couldn't make much money in that bar since Billy's the only tipper; and yes the Mac the character could be a little more dynamic (more smiles, more tears, more "I'm pissed off!") Her acting is like a Mona Lisa - same expression. But the character - the character has a heart of gold. That's why she keeps forgiving Billy boy, in spite of his multiple failures. But yes, the actress has got to do a better job.

Mary, Mary, & Mary, I apologize for the confusion. I guess I just wasn't paying attention, or just overlooked the origins of the CB entries. I promise to be more observant. Nonetheless, there is still an open question regarding Billy (see Sun Jan.3).
Yes, Mary W, Billy's portrayal is terrific, but as far as you also know, Billy's behavior has to change; change for both the character's survival, and the show's survival. That's why my question was "Anybody think Billy will drop the bottle?" What do you think?
C U all tomorrow.

It looks to me like they are throwing Ashley and Neil together. They are acting like they are such close old friends.
Putting those black roots in Patty's wig, makes it look much more realistic...almost like real hair!!!

Debs: I liked Adam when he first arrived. There was no reason not to like him. In fact, Nick and Victoria had no reason to not like him which made it hard to understand why they treated him so badly. It seemed like they cared more about their inheritance or Newman power than they did about a brother who had lost his mother. But, that ship has sailed. I liked the first actor, he was sweet looking. This one seems sleazy and creepy in addition to his evil deeds.
Neil is a selfish, egotistical jerk. You would think that if there is a possibility of losing your child that any other problem would be a minor detail. If he really wanted to help Lily, he would get over himself and put his emotions aside.
Well...looks like another switching partners scenerio: Victoria/Billy and JT/Mac. Oh well.....
Hope you all had a wonderful New Years. And, yes, the Nora news is the best news!!

Mary in Maine, It sounds like you guys really got buried in the white stuff. My neice from Maine had dinner with us last nite. She said last winter she had a -30. That's real cold. Do you winterize the house? By now you must know all the tricks to keep the pipes from freezing etch etc.
Now that new Malcom is here (not my fav choice) do you think Victoria will be back to being Drew? There was buzz she'd be back, but if they are trying to save money, I'd think she'd ask for a good wage to do this again.
We had a neice and nephew party last nite. It's so much fun seeing how these one "little kids" have turned into pretty amazing humans.
Happy Monday everyone. Does the diet start today?
MaryBeth

R.C. - what I meant about Adam is we did not get to like him before we hated him. Like Jack, we sometimes have a love hate relationship but always end up forgiving him. Adam --- forget forgiveness, he's played himself out of any Y&R interest I have.
By the way, know you love Mac, still she is so bland and insecure with her I'm still a teenager portrayal she just turns me off. I would personally pay for her ticket back to darfur. Lord knows she can't be making much in that dive of a bar she has, there's typically only Billy drinking there!! ha ha

RC I am the "Mary" from Maine, not MaryB or MaryW, I know it gets confusing. Up here in Maine ,at least in my area, it had snowed since Thursday afternoon and I would say we have almost 2 feet of new snow in our yard, with drifts as the wind last night really picked up. Wet and heavy snow, I shoveled the steps and in front of the garage doors and was glad to be done. I was lucky and didn't loose my power or phone, Fireman had to work 48 hours at the fire station so a kind neighbor plowed my yard this afternoon and Fireman will have to plow my mom who lives a few miles from us tomorrow morning.This afternoon after getting plowed out I picked my mom up at the end of her driveway (she walked down to the road) and I took her to pick up a few things in town and to just get out, the walls were closing in on her. I believe they said we might get more snow later in the week, I can hardly wait :o(

Debs: Loved your commentaries on Sat., but "lovable scoundrel"? Scoundrel, yes. He has such blind hatred for all associated with V.Newman that it seems unlikely he really cares for Sharon. I agree, though, someway to write him out is appealing.
MaryW.: Thanks for clarifying that faux pas of info on Nick. BTW, how are you doing up in Maine? (Do I have that right?) No snow here yet, but we're in for a cold week. I asked 'cause there was 5ft.drifts in Long Island, NY. (so my cousin said).
Anybody think Billy will drop the bottle?

MaryW: Billy Abbott keeps me watching. I like Chloe, too, but her storyline needs to be spiced up. Yes, she's married to a cop, but Chance just seems so cute and innocent, as in not a tough guy.
When it is finally found out how evil Adam is, what can the writers do but give him an untimely end. Too bad they chose to go that route, as Victor and Hope's son, Adam could have remained as a major character.
The comments on ghosts that could make a difference was very well put!
I know I'm biased, but I think our Canadian Shania Twain is one of the most naturally beautiful woman in the world ... and gets better and better looking with age.

Toots your new year's eve description sounded like the coziest thing I've ever heard of!! And Mary Beth congrats on Nora walking, what a sight that must be for all of you to see after everything all of you have been through!
Y&R--I think I commented a long time ago that seeing Patch from Days with Jill is going to take a bit of getting used to...I think they will make a rather odd couple. But that could also be because I just can't picture Patch with anyone but Kayla! (I used to watch DOOL).
I wanted to clarify earlier that when I said I loved a drunk Billy I in no way meant that I think it's great that Billy, or anyone, real or fictional, is an alcholic! Alcoholism is certainly nothing to take lightly--I know, both of my brothers suffer from the disease. I meant that I think the actor who is playing Billy is portraying an inebreated person realistically, and I appreciate the fact that Billy is not stone-faced all the time and actually displays emotions on his face, which I've noticed is rather rare for the actors on Y&R; their faces just always look......the same, somehow, whether they are happy or sad. Anyway I just like the Billy actor and I think he has great facial expressions, both drunk and sober!
That's all, happy new year everyone!
PS RC-I just wanted to quickly clarify that Nick didn't switch any babies--he just may or may not have revealed the results of Summer's paternity test truthfully--we will have to wait, I think a long time, to see that one.

Here in Hampton Roads (Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, etc.) the temp is 30 degrees, windy, and REALLY COLD! Now maybe to some of you 30 is "eh, big deal". But I left NY 18 years ago, so it's freezing here. Some folks just dress in "hoodies and sweatpants"! Brrr! Not me. How 'bout you?

Cactus - what wonderful news, a new tucker!! Oh I wanted to barf looking at his rubbery belly lying on the bed with Jill. I was waiting on him doing an impersonation of Santa's bowl of jelly. He did OK in his role but if we are to be subjected to Jill and Tucker in the hay at least lets not have it nauseating - if that's possible.
Denise - funny you bringing up Nina's baby, I remember watching that so many years ago and I was horrified that anyone would be so cruel, I wanted to rip her eyes out for stealing Nina's baby. Those were the days when Y&R shocked and startled me with storylines.
Does anyone remember Vanessa and Brock-- didn't Catherine hate her and lock her up int he attic, offered her money to walk away from Brock?
NC - I don't think Lily is going to die, not after Colleen showed her the future. Note too when John did his walk down Future Lane with Billy - Lily also had a child and was still with that Scaniving Aussie. Cain seems like such a "greeser" to me now, can't have him at all anymore.
Now is there a more useless ghost than John, oh, the things he could tell about everyone and though his character was Mr. Nice Guy on the soap, he too takes an "I'm very disappointed in you, frustrated with you, fed up with you" approach to Billy. Doesn't anyone get it that Billy is grieving in the only way he knows how - self destructive. I also didn't see any emotional chemistry in the "Future me" storyline. Next morning Billy is still a drunk dude - no real eyeopener event. Come on John, make yourself useful. Sink Gloworm, visit Ashley - let her know your there cause she's ganna need you. Why didn't you bring Colleen with you to talk to Billy. Let Cassie visit her mum and educate her on what a piece of Smuck Adam is.
Why are they making Nick look like a preppy university kid....is he heading for a younger love because God knows him and Phyllys have been around the block so many times.
Me too thinks Summer is Jacks and yes it is akin to stealing her away from Jack. In as awful as that is, Adam takes the cake for manipulation, evilness, cruelty, self preservation, down right selfishness and being the biggest slimeball ever portrayed on Y&R. I do not think he was known long enough to the Y&R audience to become a lovable scoundral. We did not get to really know him before he became so scurvvy. Look how he risked Ashley's life during the miscarriage, his evilness goes beyond fan forgiveness.... I think he will be written out in order to wrap things up.
When is Nicki and Victor back????
Happy New Year to all

Dear Connie, that's the sweetest wish ever. I hope you giggle too.
I haven't told you, but Nora got some red mary jane shoes for Christmas from Santa. The p.t. said she'll be able to walk without her braces when her feet get strong. Well this little girl got on her red shoes and proceeded to walk all over the place. She gets tired after a while, so the AFO's are still needed, but isn't that the best news? She'll be getting stronger every day. She is a real handful now, because she always wants to PAY (play) and it sounds like PEE sometimes, we can't tell the diff. So we sit on the potty and read a book. lol. Such wonderful sweet things come from this little girl, like the warmth of sunshine. Yea, I'm her nana.

Well, since everyone else is giving opinions about Y & R, here's mine: I have never liked Eden, don't know whey they can't get someone better for Noah's girlfriend. I didn't like the first one either. Can't stand the voice, and I don't think she is cute.
Poor Sharon, needs a wake up call for the men she seems to get mixed up with. I think this is the worst though. I think she'll remember the note, eventually, but everyone will tell her she imagine it or dreamed it due to the head injury.
I think Chance gets cuter every day. I don't know what it is, but something seems different, maybe hair is different?

Mary- Did you? Unfortunately, I only was able to see 20 minutes of today's Y&R so only began to see 2day's show...I'll discuss later.
We in VA have had the wettest year, 64 inches, in a lo-o-ong time.
Looks as if Billy's getting the "ghost of New Years' future" treatment from John, his late father, which I thought was cool. Maybe such a revelation will straighten Billy out. Who knows? Like someone said earlier, Billy's a nasty drunk - his idea of fun while drunk is ruining other people's lives, including his own.
If, in fact, Summer is Jack's daughter and not Nick's, you can bet sparks will fly; and if Nick did swithch babies like Adam did, as LadyBug said, Jack may be pissed, but as Lb noted, not much can be done.
Any way, everyone out there have a wonderful and different New Year, with good health, good fortune, and happier times. Lord knows we need it all, no?

So many believe that Summer is Jack's daughter and Nick lied about the paternity. If that is true, then Nick has done the same thing Adam did...take a child away from her parent. In Adam's case....I'm sure Sharon will get Faith soon enough, while she's still an infant,
and be able to bond with her. Whereas with Summer, Jack lost many years and she, Summer is bonded with Nick. Anyway....I think Summer is Nick's.
So...Billy will print the big scoop (as if it's the New York Times as appose to a monthly fashion mag) or maybe the wedding announcement will be in the GC Gazette. Pattie will see it...and the fun begins. Noticed that she has major black roots going, so won't be too hard to look like Emily.
I will be spending New Years Eve with my favorite person in the whole wide world...my granddaughter. We'll probably have pizza, ice cream and watch "Cat in the Hat" with Mike Myers, because we both love it.

New Years Eve will not be anything out of the norm. Fireman is on duty and the weatherman is predicting that a big storm is heading in tomorrow night right through the weekend. So I will be home with our dog Kiki watching the snowflakes fall (no ball) and praying the electricity stays on!
Say a prayer or your thoughts to the family of a 24 year old girl that lived not far from us who was killed in an accident night before last (Fireman was on duty, the vehicle she was in lost control and went in front of a truck on snowy covered roads as she was on her way home, she was within a mile of her home), she worked at the restaurant we go to all the time and we have known her family for years, her dad and uncle were volunteers at one time on the fire dept. She leaves three little girls behind.
Be thankful as you welcome the new year for all the blessings each of us have (forget the resolutions that don't really matter and usually don't last more than a week anyway) and don't take the time to think of until something like this happens and it makes you hug your family a little closer.

Debs : I must say I understand how you feel re: Mac, the actress, in that her style badly needs improvement. What I referred to though, two posts ago, was Mac, the character, in that, yes she wears her feelings, etc, on her sleeve as she gives of herself to help people, but that she should "wear" her ideals less "on her sleeve", keeping her ideals to herself. Am I being too cloudy with the description of Mac, or does what I said clarify things?
In another vein - NC : Seeing how Adam really feels about Sharon you may be right. BTW, in that light, Nick would do best to shy away from Sharon, despite how he feels about Adam. He'll ruin two lives otherwise.
This new Malcolm, I hear, doesn't even look like his "brother Neil"

Jam, where are you? Hope you are feeling better. You know, we have a friend with a shunt. She had so many replacements it was crazy. They found out the opening and closing of the automatic doors gently vibrated them out of place. Sounds sci fi but it really helped to stay away from automatic doors. That's a real hard thing to do, and she had to arrange with some placed to go in a side door without the auto closer.

Reading the Sharon & Adam posts. Soooo sick! How big a dingbat can Sharon be. One month outta the looney bin, in love, married but wants to tell her son in person the good after wedding news! dub and I could have screamed AAAAAGGGGHHHHH another plane crash. Seriously, Y&R shoulda taken the opportunity to write Adam out. I think Billy is going to be the one to figure out the baby switch. Can't you just see Nick tearing Adam's head off then.
Maybe they are moving some storylines along because we are expressing how unrealistic and sick they have been for way too long. I hope so.
I love the way Noah is developing as a character. Chance is starting to get a bit too sweet for me now though he comes across as a really nice person. Plays a bit too much Delia's dad when Billy is around.
Hate that they are taking Billy down the alcoholic road - yuk. Whadda ya think about the dame at the bar..........Catherine's daughter. Now couldn't she handle Jill!!!
Sorry R.C. - can't stand Mac still think she sucks as an actress and the honey just drools out her chin. Would love to see her go back to Darfur.
Now wait for it - there will be another switch with Emily and Mary Jane who will go nuts when she sees the 'rock'. My prediction is she will escape and act as Emily and Jack just won't know who he is bedding these days. Poor Jackie!
Over all the stupid long drawn out storylines Y&R has put us through these past few years the Adam, Ashley, Baby switch, Sharon marriage is the sickest most unbelievable, evil of the lot. Time to wrap it up and do some justice.
Doesn't daisy play her role well....also Eden is getting a bit more screen time. Still find her voice worst than the first Eden but I don't mind her now.
Delia is the most natural baby on Y&R and seems to like the camera.
Had to laugh at the Christmas Day special, opening scenes John, Brad and Colleen, talk about the Ghosts of Christmas Past. Thank God they are alive and well in real life.
think that is what I see most different about Y&R. Used to think the storylines where possible for anyone. Now they are so far removed from reality it is hard to watch.

Wow, I wonder if Victoria and Phyllis are friends in real life, their babies are 4 days apart!
Jean Happy Belated Birthday, is yours the 28th? My there's a lot of December birthdays in here, I apologize I don't know everyone's.
Can't Y&R be even a little realistic? Like having Adam's handwriting be shaky instead of perfect letters while the plane is going through major turbulence ? PMP

Oh, and what is Phyllis gonna do? Dance? ( She such an onery, bitchy one). But Nick's time is still better spent w/ his wife, don't you think? (bitchy as she is)
I think Cane's affection for Lily is real. Mac, in spite of how we may think of her expressions, remains a faithful friend to everybody, even...Billy.
How are you all? It's cold here in VaBch, VA. 39degrees (that's springtime for some of you, I know), but I still see people in shorts!
Oh, right Cactus...what if Sharon can't remember what the note said?
Even if she does, what's she gonna do? Shoot Adam? Or shoot Ashley?(for her kid back?)
Again, my apologies to Jean.

Used to be you could tune into Y & R every three weeks and have no problem catching up. I miss one week and OMG, Sharon and Adam are married (get out the barf bags), Nikki is now a brunette, love Nick's new tousled look (as compared to the greaseball), Jack is engaged to Emily (with whom I have no emotional attachment), Paul and Nina seem to be moving forward, Billy seems to be having a breakdown, we have a new Malcolm who is nowhere as goodlooking as the last one, blah blah blah.
Loved that Katherine and Murphy (looking great in his bright blue sweater) are having a traditional at home "Alberta" New Year's Eve!
Disappointed that Billy didn't walk into Crimson Lights just as JT left Victoria.
Big question now? Will the note Adam wrote to Sharon ever be found and, if so, how and by whom? Does she appear to have no memory of seeing it at this point?
JEAN: I seem to have missed your birthday. Hope it was spectacular.

Good morning, my sleep times are so messed up, I'm sleepy early and wake up early and need a nap. At one point our time change was 7 hours different.Seemed like they were always moving the clock forward and back. I do know it was 4:30 when I woke this morning, after going to bed at midnight. LOL, I know it will all come back right.
We came home to snow and very cold temps. It has been quite a shock since our last day saw 95 with 100 humidity. I was melting. Now freezing, got my warm clothes on all the time. House seems cold.
Our flight from Rio to Washington DC was part of the Nigerian terrorist scare reponse. They closed down the bathrooms an hour before we landed...and they did it just like that with little warning, so people standing in line had to go back to sit down, they were locked. While all were in line the silly girl across the aisle was in there brushing her teeth. SHEESH.They allowed nothing in our laps. We got behind some stewards getting off who were upset their new job was bathroom police.
I thought Nik's hair looked dreadful. In my humble opinion it would have been better to do very heavy lowlights at first. It looks so fried and in such bad condition. I wonder if she's done it for another acting part.zzzzzz I watched yesterday and hardly missed a beat.After all this time away,this show is moving way too slow. Sharon dug up that white wedding frock in a hurry. Her necklace with the diamond bow was very sweet.
Jean did you have a fun birthday? Don't know if its over yet, but you could do one of those celebration weeks like I do. Wishing you the best in health, happiness, and good fortune.

sparkie - while Adam and Sharon were flying back home the pilot came over intercom and told them rough weather up ahead and put their seat belts on...the turbulance gor wild and the O2 mask feel down they put them on and Adam grabbed a piece paper from pocket and wrote "your baby is alive" and showed it to Sharon...it never showed the crash but you have the idea thta's what is going to happen...

LadyBug you hit the nail on the head.
NC, you too.
"And you may kiss your sucker bride..." the jurist says, because she fell for your crafty ways, Adam. I guess I shouldn't say that 'cause Adam probably really loves her.
Billy's in a bad way, living out of the hooch; while Mac's expression never changes, noticed? Yet Mac gives him the right advice to stay out of the bar and BE more like the Dad he claims to be for Delia.
Do any of you think that Catherine not pursuing her long lost daughter is right?
Oh, and I know a lot of you have stopped pursuing Y&R, so the previous question may mean nothing.
Of course, you all know Nick is going to chase after Sharon....What a mistake, eh?

burlington,ontario - Mon Dec 28 19:39:14 MST 2009
It occurred to me a few weeks ago that the only way Adam will ever tell Sharon about Faith is with his last dying breath. I wondered how that would happen. Maybe the plane crash. He really has become a dispensable character. They made him so evil that there's no where left to go.
I was so distracted with Nikki's hair, I didn't notice she lost weight. Odd that she went dark. Usually women go light when they start to gray. I tried to keep my dark hair for the longest time, but dark hair with gray roots is SOOOO unattractive and you have to dye it constantly.

OH my gosh, Victor must be in Rio...(haven't watched the show for 35 days) ....but I heard the flute music couch heard in New Mexico. Didn't see him anywhere, but where we stayed there were a few nice hotels and condos....and people who took their dogs for walks.
South America is a very diverse wonder! We saw all kinds of places and people. We were cold cold cold and hot hot hot. Sometimes the cruise time was very rocky and much of it was smooth as glass. We truly had the trip of a lifetime, and while I would do it again, it all made me realize what a treasure my family is to me, and how lucky most people in the USA and Canada really are.
Jean, loved your go back machine. You only forgot one thing...Frances's serious fixation with Ricky Martin. You are all so special to me, and it's a good place to visit.
Someone asked me to be a Facebook friend named lu something..and I didn't know who that person If it is someone in here try me again, I don't know everyone's real life names.
I hoping your holidays have been great, and your New Year be filled with good health for you and all you love.
My family was together the night of the 26th just like we do on CHristmas Eve. Nora woke in the night crying she wanted Nana!!! LOL I was passed out sleeping so hard I didn't hear the meltdown. We both need a good nap today.
It's going to take a few days to catch up on life here in Fort Collins and the USA. The only news that got through was All Tiger WOODS ALL THE TIME. There was some cockamimi CNN channel that had little or no North AMerican news. WIerd.

An old friend just lost her husband on Christmas Eve, yet she gave the most hopeful account of his passing, saying, "...(he) got the best Christmas present by meeting Jesus today....".

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL
Had a quick read at the Christmas posts - Christmas is always a sad time of the year for some. - Because it is supposed to be so happy and so family oriented, that it inevitably brings sorrow for some of days gone past, people no longer here etc... My sister brings a little tree to the kids graves and decorates it, she leaves battery operated lights especially for her son who was afraid of the dark. She crys and misses them - then pulls herself together and goes home to make Christmas happen for the rest of the family. - I honestly don't know how she does it.
From me to you:
For those who are lonely - a warm hug.
For those who miss a loved one - A happy memory
For those depressed or sad - a jolly good laugh
For those who know how to party - drive safe
For those waiting for Santa - may your dreams come true
For those on the Y&R - may the truth prevail!!
For the rest of us - May your Christmas be bright and your memories beautiful.

This is not to "offend" anyone, but rather to simply say, for me, it is not about the giving, the taking or the time off from work, but rather to understand, that Christmas is to celebrate the Lord,s birth. We do also need to think about others, yes, and to remember all the bad and good things of the past years ! It is a time to reflect on our families, weather they are with us, or have gone to a better place. The memories are all we have left, but we should relish in those, as they were the moments in life, we treasure and should smile about. Please share, the moments we have with our loved ones that can be with us.
Wishing all my " chat book" friends, a very Merry Christmas, and a very Happy New Year as well.

RC: Most of us understand...most of us have had less than perfect holidays. But....Christmas is what you make it. You can't change circumstances but you can change yourself and your ATTITUDE. People think that happiness comes when everything in your life is good. But, you've got a long wait for that. You simply have to DECIDE to be happy. You and your mom can sit around and think and talk about everything that's wrong or you can find things that are good...you still have each other and that's more than some have. It's completely your choice. And if you choose "ain't it awful" then you have no one to blame but yourself. Why not think of all the people you have loved and enjoyed and be grateful. Sure, there's sickness and tragedy, but I'm sure you can find good things too. Put the past behind you, it's done and over. Take from it any little piece of joy that you can and focus on that. Make the choice to have a great Christmas and decorate, eat good stuff, watch some cheezy Christmas movies on TV and enjoy. Blessings to you both!!!
Wishing you all a wonderful, happy, joyful holiday!!

I'm just sorry my friends here can't understand why the holidays for me, and my mom, aren't so jolly anymore. Almost all of the family is gone: her parents, including her mom's birthday on the 23rd, my dad, her husband, my three uncles, the only living aunt is suffering dementia from alcoholism, three cousins are gone(I suspect Agent Orange), only one cousin keeps in touch, while her brothers' spouses remain reticent to us, it seems. So mom and I are it, and at 80, mom's health isn't good (sorry mom). So merry merry isn't so merry merry.

Sheila was shot by Lauren when she looked like Phyllis and Sheila teased her that she shot the wrong one before she supposedly kicked the bucket. But Sheila never really dies, so....she's kind of like the the guy on Days of Our Lives that never dies, Stefano?

Boy, I really fell for that sting that Phyllis, et al, set up on Deacon! I ranted on about how awful it was that she would plot to have Amber kidnapped, etc, etc! Well, HQ is about to serve me a big plate of crow! That was really well done and I have to give the PTB credit for this one. I see that lady bug and rcsmiley fell for it too. Good point about how easy it was to grab Amber. Deacon should have wondered about that. I see that Mary in Maine sniffed it out-good for you.
rcsmiley, I have no info on mothers entering prison cells but the GC jail is a strange place anyway, with inmates roaming around freely and visitors coming and going at will. As for snowstorms, I was working in Manhattan when the 1947 storm hit. Even the subways stopped running, at least on the lines that were partly above ground, and no buses, of course. I did get to my office one day, climbing over drifts in the middle of 42nd Street. What a time!
I don't understand this talk about Sheila returning. I could swear that they really and truly finished her off once and for all. I have a dim memory of her getting shot, maybe by that lady cop that Paul was dating. I could be all wet. Can anyone refresh my memory of her demise? Wasn't it totally corpse city for her?

Cactus- Thanks for the clarity.
Don't you all think Adam broke Cassie's family drawing because it represented the only stable elements in Sharon's life? While Adam, of course, is just going to ruin Sharon's life, who is distraught now, by Adam's selfishness. Isn't it great that Nick is perceptive enough to see through Adam's "blindness"?
Jack is best to stay away from bitchy, crotchety Phyllis. Not that Emily is one to trust, either, but love is there anyway. Speaking of love, Murphy and Catherine appear to illustrate love the best, while while selling Christmas trees. Unlike Billy, who cans Chloe, the mother of his Delia, probably for personal reasons.
Do you think JT and Vick will get back together? Looks like Jack and Emily are preparing to spend the night. I just think it's odd that Jack's about to sleep with a woman who looks like the one who tried to kill him earlier.
Daisy says she was told to "play the part" (on tomorrow's show). But by whom?

Mary - Sorry to have started a "windstorm" of snow tales of reported upcoming white stuff. I knew the winter nor'easter was headed up there so I just...well anyway glad all is ok.
Folks, inasmuch as y'all hate this, Sheila might be the evil...(tried to find the word for a marionette operator), behind the scenes of Deacon, Ryder and Daisy. What do you think? Am I off the wall, or what?
When is someone gonna pull the wool off Sharon's eyes to see Adam for what he is? Like I said once before she'll probably slit his throat once she finds out what he did to her baby.

Cactus - Don't think Daniel is aware about Little 'D' - she was going to tell him at one point ages ago.....but in accordance with soap world if never did quite come out.
Deacon did mention though that Little 'D' was being "held" by whoever had him over a barrel!!! must be Sheila. (AAAAGGGHHHH - no more Sheila - puleeeze).
Willie - love your cardboard cut out definition of Phyllis and I totally agree, they have made her into a person you would love to hate but she has become a personality not worth your time. She is evil in a way that makes you feel that's how she would be in real life....just not a nice person. Don't like her or her character anymore.
R.C. --- lets start an uproar - Let the truth be told and Adam pay for all his crimes. No more sweeping under the carpet what you want to use in 15 years......give us a break with the sick story line. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE...that Eden is on to Daisy, finally someone with a little observation in body language, atta girl, show up the stupid adults.
Victoria and Billy - WOW yes, saw the fireworks. Now this may be very naive of me, but I really don't want them messing with Victoria and JT's relationship......me tends to think it might carry over beyond the work place and I'd hate to see that.
I think Billy & Chloe have the most natural parent/child relationship with their baby than any of the others have ever had. The kid even laughs and smiles back at them. Even though they have changed Summer (months ago) I still think the kid playing her sucks.
I read where Michael and Laurens little Fen is on other shows and doing very well in the theatrical world.
Also think Noah has really come a long way in the past year with his acting. I quite like him and I like the way he stuck by Eden when the sh-t hit the fan with some of their joint antics.
Adam just didn't like the idea Nic's name was on the picture Cassie made....that's why it hit the floor and Nick and Sharon had such a lovely moment together there. then they went and spoiled it all by bringing her cat's claws out on Nick in defense of Adam. Oh p-ss up a tree, nobody could be as stupid as Sharon is with Adam....least not when youv'e been in as many beds as she has.

It's Little "D" for Deacon junior.
I was very surprised at what happened Friday. It's rare that they surprise the viewers like that, in fact I can't remember a time that it happened.
Big time snow here in Central Virginia. And it hasn't been touched. No snow plows, salt, nothing. It is beautiful and cozy. It's kind of funny. I live in the city and when I look out at the street the only tracks are from people walking, no tire prints.

When is Nick going to accept that Phyllis will never change, and move on.
I believe we are being led to believe that Sheila is Ryder and Daisy's mother (as they appear to be siblings), and she is setting them up to do in Lauren. I, too, wonder what her face is going to look like this time. It would be good to see Ryder look other than (1) angry (2) scared rabbit.
Does Daniel know that Amber has a child? I wonder who is looking after "little Dean" now that Deacon is busted?

Happy Freezing Friday to you all: I agree w/ all of you that Phyllis is not match for the Deacon and lacked the good conscience to hand Amber over to him. What a sly, conniving bitch. Just to get her son out of jail she sacrifices the one woman Daniel loves? Wait 'til he finds out; no more "Love ya mom, words are not enough to thank you, etc..."
This stuff with Adam and Sharon is played too long...let the truth come out, for Pete's sake, so she can slit his throat already.
But Kevin in the Pee Wee Herman suit is the only humorous thing in the Y&R agony.
Oh yeah, and is Sheila Ryder's mom? Where does Daisy-do fit in? Was Sheila filming Mike and Lauren?

Phyllis is no one for Deacon to mess with, when she came on the show she was the "evil" one so I think she has got something up her sleeve.She does not love Amber, but she does love her son and she knows Amber does too so I am hoping I'm right and she has got something cooked up that we are not seeing.

Cactus: I was thinking exactly the same thing about Billy and Victoria. I almost expected them to start kissing.
Willie: I agree about Phyllis. The only person she loves is herself. I also find it hard to believe that Deacon got Amber in the car so easy. Wouldn't she have fought with every fiber of her being and scratched his eyes out???
Well, Sheila has been mentioned so it's safe to assume that the mystery woman is her. The question is...what is she going to look like. The last time we saw her she had plastic surgery to look just like Phyllis. If she looks like the old Sheila or another beautiful woman...then they have completely gone off the deep end. The rich women in real life who get face work look freakish and unnatural. But these soap characters can get some work and look completely natural?????? If they can't come up with stories that don't require face replacement...then they do need to go!

Kevin looks like Pee-Wee Herman in that bowtie outfit.
Phyllis pulled it off, but Deacon's influence on the whole deal gives me reason to suspect that strings were pulled in order to get Daniel to release info on the paintings. And that redhead, Daisy, we know is in it, right?
Who was watching Michael and Laurie(?N) celebrate their iconic anniversary? Deacon or Ryder? Either way, now that Ryder's on his own (w/o Deacon) maybe he'll fall apart.
BTW, since when does a mother enter the prison cell to spring her son? Maybe Willie knows. Or dave.
That Ryder's got looks that could kill. But it Mom is on the sidelines watching him. Is Ryder's mom Sheila? Hmmm?
Billy got sprung? Too bad. Who arranged that? Oh Well, next week.

They have now turned Phyllis into a totally unbelievable, irredeemablly stupid, nasty, cardboard cutout of a human being. She supposedly loves Daniel but has conspired with an evildoer to kidnap Amber, with the intent to deprive him of the woman he loves permanently. I'm sorry, this one I just can't stomach. No sane woman would have done this, only a soap opera caricature!

I have an idea for the biggest pairing in Genoa City since Victor and Nikki. Billy Abbot and Victoria Newman. What a pair those two would make, like putting a fuse to dynamite.

I think everyone is okay. It has occurred to me, though, that Jam was having serious medical problems and we haven't heard from her in quite some time.
I thought that Phyllis was being such a wonderful mother who would do anything for her child...but NO. Doesn't she see how much Daniel loves Amber and it will devastate him if she leaves, not to mention be a big blow to his self esteem. And I can't believe she would take the risk of using such important evidence, the cell phone, for her own selfish needs.

Jen, Susan, Dave - You're right. As far as Nick still chasing Sharon to help, or for affection, That Ship Has Sailed. He should be settling matters in his own house. Regarding that: Phyliss needs to keep her nose out of other's matters, since she'll just blow her son's case and keep him in still. The redhead girlfriend of Ryder's knows the importance of the find, But Phyll's influence may prove faulty anyway. We'll see.
Lily and Cane's story is meaningful, provided it doesn't go on too long, and Mac's involvement just illustrates her giving nature - which is honorable.

Regarding Adam and Sharon -- Yeah, obviously Adam is a snake in the grass. He stole Sharon's baby for his own agenda, and then turned around and slept with her, violating her in two ways. Thing is, no one knows it. I just can't stand it when people are trying to be happy, and others try to destroy what they have. Nick is obviously jealous. He needs to keep his eyes on his own wife. In time, the bad junk will show up, but in the meantime, all they're going to do is screw over Sharon worse. It would have been better for them to wait til the pieces fall, and be there for her.
I've been in relationships before where people tried to break us up, for whatever reason they wanted to give us. A lot of people didn't think my husband and I would survive, but my best friend, who obviously didn't like him (never said that, though), never said a single word. However, we've been together since 1987, so people just never know what will happen.

Hi - Do you get this - The whole neighborhood came out to help Philis. As dumb as the idea sounds, that shows real comradery amongst friends to do that.
I knew it - Ryder and this redheaded chick are in this evil scheme together. How long will it take to find out their ploys? > The way I see it- - You have to cut the power to the light switch before you fix the light or switch; Ryder is that power line, and Deacon and that Redhead is the light switch. People gotta cut his influences first, then the rest. What do you think, gang?
Tucker is tucking his head into Jill's neck and I bet she'll mold like clay in his hands. Maybe not.

rcsmiley, I have to admit I've somehow gotten away from watching any football this year, except for USC and that turned out to be a bummer. I do intend to watch some of the playoffs though, particularly the Chargers, who are now the only Cal team close to where I live in Hemet.
A lot of recent comments express the frustration that I've felt for a long time. Debs, you are the most expressive one, particularly your final plea for the Y&R bunch to try getting REAL for a change. When I first started posting here, my first gripe was about this multi-billionaire running his empire with no one but a few relatives and living on a ranch with one servant and interested in nothing about his many companies except "acquisitions". Do they ever have union problems, delivery delays, lawsuits about sexual harassment, ANY of the day-to-day running of a large business? Of course not.
And now we have a brand-new detective on the GC force with nothing in the way of a police acadamy or any training other than being an MP in Iraq, which is a lot different from being a city cop.
Another thing that's annoying is how they seldom let anybody really forget a previous love and go full-fledged into the future. Nick and Sharon, Billy and Chloe, Mac and Billy, they all still cast those longing eyes at each other. At least, Lily and Cane seem to be fully-committed but what do you want to bet they won't be allowed to have a decent life; she'll have relapses, he'll probably get a wandering eye, something to screw things up.
Anybody want to give odds that Y&R will follow World Turns into oblivion in the not too distant future?

She has enough money to set Daniel up in Brazil, but can't go to Lowes, pick up a dozen of undocumented citizens standing in front, looking for work. She could have given them enough money to find the bag and for their children to have a good Christmas. Too bad Mac is the only altruist in town. And if you don't like the undocumented, then homeless or the many out of work.

For pretty much the past 30 years I have been a Y&R watcher. I have been moved, cried, laughed, prayed, hoped, wished....just about every emotion you could think of. In the past few years though not much about it has done anything for me (except P. me O.).
Then my hopes were once again ignited last year with the fast spreading word of new writers. There was new hope, anticipation for storylines, excitement about a Y&R shuffle that would bring out the best in the actors etc.... Well!! I think these writers think we are all stupid, stupid, stupid. The storylines are neither particularly interesting, even more drawn out than before and NOT in the least bit realistic. I know it is a soap but lord of lord there is so much real life material out there they could make us laugh, cry and go through all those wonderful emotions we (I) used to. I find myself predicting the storylines and outcomes weeks/months before the show ever gets there. Sure takes the fun out of it. What I once enjoyed is now something I find myself critizing and laughing at only for it's obserdity (Can't spell that).
That sure is the cleanest dump I have ever seen and every millionaire in town in rummaging through it.... gee whiz Michael and Lauren even spend their wedding anniversary there (maybe they were looking for a free meal). Then within 5 minutes and a few flashlights between them low and behold the much sought after gym bag appears. My, My it's a Christmas Miracle!
I know if I was Jill I would have laid Tucker out on the conference room table - flat on his back alright but with a knock out punch for being so deceptive. Do the actors always have to be soooooo cheap??
The utter stupidity of Sharon, I mean she's been around the block and can't see Adam for what he is - she's not lost in grief that much.
Billy is being such a bad boy these days, but his anger is actually more grief related and realistic in gettinf his revenge for Colleen. (Not that I like what they are doing with the Character).
Loved the tender moments with JT and Victoria at Billy's hearing. And EXCUSE ME JUDGE, did you say printing Victoria's "indescrtion" was kin to "porn". Just about died on that one - Judge dearest would you like me to tell you about the rest of GC.
So writers give us a break, stop treating us like cloistered idiots and give us something to sink our teeth into. Let us love and laugh and worry and celebrate with the storylines of the show and for God sake stop making everybody a murderer, unpunished criminals, so easy to lay and so uncommitted to any relationship. Give us some real life, tragety and triumph, love and heartbreak that we can believe in.
OK I feel better.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This guy Tucker wants the whole 25%, eh? But there was no discussion about the price per share he would be willing to pay over the minimum Catherine would accept? Isn't that an integral part of any negotiation? If she does accept, she could mollify the others by just adding another 10% or so to the IPO and split it among them.
Of course Phyllis could hire pros to do this dirty job but that wouldn't be dramatic enough. And in dumps I've seen on TV news, there's no neatly piled small groups of stuff separated by little clean paths, either. They're great big mountains of garbage with flocks of pigeons or gulls hovering over them.
In real life, any inmate with unexplained injuries would quickly be segregated for his safety but dear Heather, as usual, wants proof of an attack! For pete's sake, can't they have just one bit of reality creep in here?
(Wait! I just said yesterday I had to quit being so critical! Dang it all, anyway! Sorry, producers, sorry writers, sorry directors! We don't want you to go away, do we?)

Well, this guy, what is he? Tucker, just threw Jill a curve by showing up at Chancellor...after their romp at the hotel. So he wants to buy 1/4 of the stock value? Well, let's see.
Aren't ya glad the judge is holding Billy to provide evidence for a clean mag? ...And off to jail!
When is Phyllis gonna learn? Her involvement will only "stink up" her son's case ('scuse the pun...She wants to search acres of a landfill for evidence) How 'bout this? All Phyllis has to in that landfill is light up a cigarette.
That Tucker, who I don't trust btw, really raises Jill's temps!

Debs : Though I'm certainly not the voice of expertise here, I thought the advice you gave to Mary W. was right-on. Even I was encouraged by your advisory comments.
And if I may, Mary, don't let a voice of criticism, or the well-meaning but hurtful comments made to you deflate your well-being. Even in mourning. LET IT ROLL OVER YOUR HEAD and LET IT GO. Life's not worth getting hurt.
By the way, criticism is supposed to help you, not hurt you.
rc smiley
Virginia Beach, VA - Thu Dec 10 20:20:43 MST 2009
Mary W. - well you sure are gettin lots of responses to your critism question. Pretty much agree with what others have said but I just feel so upset for you. I know with what you have shared with us there is much more if you read between the lines and I sense you are really hurting and in turmoil as to what to do or where life is taking you. It is hard to make a good decision when there is so much on your mind.
Sometimes others see this and I am hoping what your sister said was in love and not critism. My feelings are that you really need a friend to talk to and trust and I am sorry you have so much on your plate. It surely makes each day mentally and emotionally exhausting not to mention keeping the public face on display and raising your dauther.
I beleive whether it is advice or critism it should be done in private. Sometimes what we call critism is the truth spoken by someone we don't perhaps feel very close to. On the other hand, the saying goes..."you always hurt the one you love".
Have you considered that maybe your sister sees more than you might realize and how hard it must be for her to stand back and see you pretend everything is OK when she knows you are hurting. I think eventually something will be said that perhaps has some element of truth even if it hurts.
I honestly hope your sisters words came from a caring heart. Regardless, how you deal with it is more important. If what is said is BS, ignore it, accept that she was not being very nice for whatever reason and that she or anyone else is not going to spoil your day with unkind words.
If there is truth to what is said, take a look at it, see what you can do to change/correct the situation even if it is painful to hear. You know your sister best, if she is a good sister, give her the benefit of the doubt, she may be really hurting for you and not know what to do to help, support or comfort you. Love comes in many ways especially among family members. I just pray she is for you a source of support.
I really don't mean to lecture, I honestly feel for you and wish I could say or do something that would make things better, easier or more loving in your life/situation. I am so glad you share with us and let us try to support you even though we are only chat board friends. Your sister could be your best allie in hard days, tray not to judge or feel judged. Do something about it if you need to. Spruce up, brighten up, pick yourself back up....get out of those 3 day old sweatpants and make yourself feel beautiful again.
Your kind, caring and compassionate heart come through when you write and even as a stranger in your life I feel for you. Let your sister do the same without being offended and beleive that she only said what she did because she loves you.
On the other hand if she is just a mean spirit....to hell with it, pick yourself back up anyway and get ready to face the next day. We're with you.

Phyllis is a loose cannon once again. Paul should never have shown her those photos; obviously, he should have turned them over to Michael, who is, after all, Daniel's lawyer! But no, first Phyllis, then Amber and then Deacon, who just happened to be at the coffee shop to hear it all. I know they had to do this to forward the plot line but it's so grating to me when they have people acting so stupid!
Debs, I agree with you about Heather-every case she's had involving our characters, she's been adamant about her position and she's been WRONG! And HQ and I both have trouble understanding her- there's something about her voice that we find hard to get.
rcsmiley, I'm one of those dwindling WW2 vets, fewer every day. But at 85, I'm in reasonable health and don't plan to leave soon. I carried an M1 rifle all around Europe and never fired a shot for real. The Germans did fire a few 88's in my general direction, but it was nothing personal, Har! As for Sharon, this gal has a well-developed sex drive, for sure! She was "active" long before her current grief.
Fireman, is it confirmed that World Turns is going? Even though Y&R is all we watch, I would hate for the genre to die. These shows give a lot of older folks something to interest them and also a lot of pretty decent actors steady jobs. I'd better quit being critical of Y&R, don't want to give anybody ammunition!
Didn't get to make my turkey soup yet. Now we're all wound up with Christmas coming in 2 weeks-Yike! That turkey rack is going to stay in the freezer a while yet!

Mary W. - So, anyway, to continue... any criticism meant to be constructive should at least be done privately. As Jesus said, [I don't remember the scripture placement( you know, chapt: verse)], If you have an issue with somebody, go and tell him privately. If you win him over, good, .....Well, the point is, a private criticism is better, of course, but we all know we don't always hear what we want to hear. Besides, we don't always see ourselves the way others do. OH, YES, and talking about someone behind their backs is not good either. I know. I've done it.
rc smiley
Virginia Beach, VA - Wed Dec 9 19:12:46 MST 2009
Mary W. - "Constructive criticism" is a catch-word used mostly by those who give it, especially if they give it liberally. IMO. Yes, it can be effective if delivered in the proper manner. For instance, at a business meeting or party speaking to someone of their multiple faults accomplishes zip, nothing. Nothing but, as you put it, defensive responses and hurt....be back...phone.
rc smiley
Virginia Beach, VA - Wed Dec 9 17:38:34 MST 2009
MaryW: I agree with NC regarding constructive criticism at work. It's understandable and necessary. But, unless someone is a drug addict and needs an intervention, I don't think criticism is good or necessary among family and friends. Those who criticize are often insecure people who feel better when they find fault in others. I would say to your sister (calmly) or email: "If I want your advice or opinion I'll ask for it. In the meantime, how about I don't judge you and you don't judge me." Furthermore, I think having a standing-all-day eight month old is a perfectly good excuse to let yourself go. Most moms I have known, unless they had a job, usually let themselves go for about two years. Then you wake up one morning in your three day old sweats and you know it's time to come back to the living.

MaryW - Yes I think constructive criticism is helpful if it is presented in the right form...like when at work I was evalutated on how I did my job and some positive and some negative...it's all in how you precieve it...and how it's presented to you...others can "see" things that we are unaware of...did your sister give you any positive feedback or are you just looking at the negative and not the positive?...IMO I think this type needs to be done in person...agin IMO....see me going to my shrink is helping me to think out side of my own box.

Deb I have had problems with my low back for years and have walked with a cane for last 5 or so years...especially if I walk any distances....after I was laid off I gain 35 pounds which didn't help back any and that is just about off (yea!!!)...doctor had suggested years ago that I might want to look into getting one...well my insurance didn't cover a chair unless I couldn't walk across the room...so that's how I found one in a yard sell...and lift and swing away arm for lift came later...I guess I felt like I was still in full control if I could still walk some on my own that I never told anyone.
My chair is a Jet 3...don't know if I want to try it in the snow...becuase it takes awhile to get chair off lift and unhooked etc.and you'd freeze to death...if your around snow alot (forgot where you live) then I would suggests one of the lifts that puts it in the car for you. But I tell you one thing it was worth it to be able to go up and down the rows and really shop with out being so worn out or so short of breath from all the walking.

**Extremely long post warning**
BWAHAHA I cracked up today when Chloe and Billy put Delia down for a nap, (a baby that was not acting in the least bit tired BTW) in about 30 seconds. What a bunch of unrealistic hooey!
Did anyone else notice that ever since, months ago, we commented in the chatroom that Delia's head, while very cute, looked a tad on the large side, she has been wearing hats on the soap ever since? Coincidence??
Does everyone realize that there was a time in your life when you WANTED to stand up all day long? Yes, it was when you were 8 months old!
Fellow posters I have an issue that I would really appreciate advice on, and I pick your brains once again. What do you all think of "constructive" criticism? Is there such a thing? Or is criticism just always hurtful? My sister has taken it upon herself to inform me of some of mine and my baby daddy's shortcomings. For example, that I have let myself go (appearance wise) since the baby was born. What do you all think of actually voicing (emailing) your "concerns" about someone, to them?
I have not had a positive reaction to it, I have become very angry and defensive with my sister, (just in time for the holidays), and I'm wondering if voiced criticism, (as long as the one being criticized is not doing anything serious or hurting anybody), is ever a good idea. Thoughts? Do we really want to say anything/everything that's on our minds regarding other people, out loud? TO THEM?? Let's face it; even though we shouldn't, we all judge other people, we may have at times talked about someone behind their back. We all try to keep these things to a minimum. But isn't it taking it to an entirely different level when you actually tell the person these things to their face? My point is is that I don't think criticism accomplishes anything, because in all likelihood the person isn't going to change just because you pointed something out to them, and they are most likely just going to get defensive and hurt. I wondered if anyone has ever done this or been on the receiving end of this and what the results were. Thanks.

Listening to Sade, "The Sweetest Taboo"
Well, Phyl is right. Deacon is to blame for Daniel's current condition.
But Deacon has an alibi and the smarts to beat it. Besides, he don't move unless Ryder pulls the strings, I guess.
Didn't slimy Adam know he took that phone call in Nick's ear space? So Nick's pot is boiling more and more. (see below)
Yeah, Debs - Heather gets too involved in client's and non-client's lives to make correct counsel. Thank you, Debs.
****Nick belted Adam for screwing his ex, but Nick doesn't recognize that people (both genders) deal with grief differently, I know I did, and I guess Sharon dealt with her grief by having sex. What do you all think?
Kevin, take Daniel's advice - watch out for Ryder. Seems to me Kevin is the key for Ryder to get int other people's lives and money.
Now that Nick's butt is on the grill for belting Adam - sight-impaired, an employee, etc. - .......
> Hey! Now that we've heard Nick's assessment thkat Adam coordinated being found in bed w/Sharon and spoke so confidently about the relationship that it's no surprise Nick punched him 'cause Adam schemed it from the start.
Hopefully, Paul's attempts will work.
And Sharon puts Adam on the grill. Good.

Mary W. just noticed your Elvis loves Christmas email. I am just in the process of replacing Elvis!!!! My little guy took a fancy to his music a few years back and we had it all. Posters, pictures, dolss, vehicles, birth certifcates, marriage, death you name it. the ceiling was covered in elvis rugs, I even made him bed linens with all Elvis hit records on them, drapes etc... It really was a beautiful room. I even tracked down the foot depth border that had the pictures of his LP's on it - cost me almost $300 just for the border....the things we do for our kids. Well of course when he got to be 16/17 Elvis wasn't cool to have for a room so it moved to hockey and Elvis moved to boxes in storage. Well, now he has moved into the basement and Elvis lives!!!! He is going back up on the walls, ceilings, shelves, every nook and cranny will be filled. Some pretty neat stuff that we collected for him over the year.
Nurse Connnie - glad you got a good laugh. Sorry I never knew/missed hearing you were incapacitated. I was off the board for some months myself, last I knew you were out of work and Charlie had the heart attack. Was wondering about those scooters in the winter weather. my hubby needs one.

R.C. - gosh I can't agree with you on Heather. IMO she sucks as a DA. Has way to many personal relationships involved with the cases she works on. Can be manipulated by anybody and now it appears is willing to compromise her ethics to keep her new boss off her back. I was wondering though, now she is back in the picture, if she will be the one to unravel the "I know what ADAM did story".
Please somebody unravel it....
I'm not quite sure where I stand on the Mac surrogacy, again it is for me too close in family relationships. Now one might say that is the best way...all for one and one for all. But there is so much animosity between Billy and Cain and it has already destroyed Mac and Billy's relationship.... only more of the same to come. How about something, anything positive for a change. I also see Mac being unable to give the baby up later. Wish Y&R was not so predictable.
I do not like the way Billy is being portrayed lately, and the way the magazine is now being run....watch out Ashley, there goes your investment.
Agree, wrap up the stupid painting storyline....me thinks it might be Daisy who shot the guy in the alley. Phyllis, keep your nose out of your son's marriage and treat his wife with some respect or you will deserve all you get including losing your son to the woman YOU hate.

Hi, How are you all?
Many cheers and mournings for those who survived Pearl Harbor. It's a shame so many survivors of WWII are passing every day.
Y+R - They may not be married anymore, but clearly Nick is pissed about Adam bedding w/Sharon and rightly thinks Adam is just using this "venue", if you will, to use who he wants for his own ends. I think he does it just to piss off his half-brother (step- ).
Many, or some of you, know personally about surrogacy. How do you think of Mac's emotional outcome after the surrogate activity is over? And of course, what of Lily? I do, however, think that Mac's volunteering on Lily's behalf is great.
Phyllis has got to get her finger into everyone's business, including the law for jailing her son. Granted, the evidence is stacked against him and he may really be innocent, but she will be no help to him, imo.
Hope all is well.

Well, is there any man on Y&R that Sharon hasn't slept with? Paul, maybe, unless I have forgotten that one.
I'm ready for Victor and Nikki to come back. They need to move on with the Daniel and art work storyline.
Boy, Adam really likes to push Nick's buttons, and knows how to do it!!

Fireman - I didn't make a snow angel......I have made them in the past....fun!! BUT, I went to the gym that day and had shorts on, with snow flakes all over me. Wish someone would have taken a pic.
MaryW - don't mind you asking me anything. Dan's sister never liked me, and her last wishes were that I could not sit in the family row. I had to sit with the cousins on the third row. During a hug prayer I went up to hug Dan and he patted the seat next to him and I sat down. Some no body jumped my s*^t that I disrupted the service. Geez, I hope that this topic doesn't bring back the no body again. But you asked...I don't care. (Don't thing she realized that she hurt Dan more than me)!
Nite Chet- dinner was great

MaryW - Oh, yes I remember those fights. I have been picked on a few times (always "NO NAMES") that aren't bold enough to post their names. Ones I remember was I wasn't allowed to sit with Dan at his sisters funeral and half way thru I got up and sat next to him (couch blocked that pest), and the other was I made a comment about Dan's parents Thankgiving meal. kko got into a disagreement with emeily, and recently a no name got on to adb about her comments to RC. Hey folks, there are alot more things to worry about. Can't everyone just get a long?????
Fireman - I really don't post because I don't watch Y&R any more. I turned it on the other day and didn't know half of the characters!! I'll try to chat more often, Just stuff. But no Y&R
We got our decorations up outside yesterday, and bought our tree today and decorated it. Smells great in the house. BTW it snowed here Wednesday. WEPA Very pretty.
Okay, my signature over and out.
Later - Roast chicken, mashed taters, and asparagus tonight.

Mary and Fireman that is quite the list of posters--that very well may be everyone? I remember two "fights" in the chatroom. One of them an African American lady did not like the saying "the pot calling the kettle black" even though it was in no reference to the word black being used that way. I think that was Coco, haven't seen her post since. And Loki and I got into it about a free speech disagreement and haven't heard anything from her since that either. Sigh, oh well, it's still fun to compose the list of chatterers.

Morning every one. The sun shines brightly but COLD..Finished getting the tree decorated yesterday and then quite a bit of wrapping...New neighbor right across from me decorated with red, green and blue lights clear across ridge of the roof the eaves, and up both sides of the drive way, Sooo pretty and I get to enjoy it when ever I pass a window.

Leave it to Connie to fan all that snow our way! Here we just had two days that were almost 70 (!!!!) and today we were getting our metal roof installed and it started to snow. Half the roof is done and they hopefully will get the other half on Monday,(if no more snow comes along)!
I know the temps have been crazy and I can not remember a December when we didn't have to have some heat every night, but then two days ago it happened and I must say it was a nice early Christmas gift.Days like that every now and then make the winter a whole lot easier to take. We know the cold and storms are just around the corner.
I started wrapping gifts today and made quite a dent.

Couch ! Happy birthday, where ever you might be. We all owe a gratitude of thanks to you and Zack for this site. Rest in peace our friend.
Sorry if some of you do not know the founder of this site. I never met/talked with her, but many of the older chatters have, including Mary, "my wife" and she has been missed a lot.
I am hoping, Nurse Connie will add to this post, as to the great times that were had in "real chat" time, and the discipline of the room.
It seems, many of the chatters have gone away or are just lurking. Even if it is not about "Y&R", at least say hello, once in awhile.
Another post is forthcoming.

Hi, folks,- - Today's show Sharon looks like a mess-emotionally. She's got Adam in her bed, while she's mourning another child and another marriage....I guess she needs some crumb like Adam for comfort.
By the way, the info on Deacon was an eye-opener. Kevin's heavy "sunglasses" prevent him from seeing how this Ryder fellow and Deacon work together with - er - what's her name.
And Daniel- - -Couldn't he keep his mouth shut? Heather's a real good DA. I guess, to squeeze that stuff about the alley out of him, info even I don't think he's certain about. Might just be enough to fry him, excuse the expression. What do ya think?

Hi, everyone! Enjoyed reading all your inputs, including Dave's (long as it was. Some of those stories sounded familiar, though I didn't see B&B - maybe that's how I know Deacon has a questionable past). Debs story about the tree was really neat. Yes, Willie, the story lines are finally getting better, finding new people to despise. Like that Ryder whom I'd trust like a shark at night. Willie and HQ, enjoy the turkey soup! Take care, everyone.

I just watched Y&R and am wondering what has happened to the people that do the hair of the actors~~~ Ambers hair is so awful!!!! worse than any I have ever seen..Phyllis with a ponytail(to old for that) Cloe She is really lovely but her hair tooo short to be pinned back... out side of that show not bad today....:O)

not a pretty day in Ohio - Thu Dec 3 18:55:04 MST 2009
Yeah...that was so odd that Ashley took the baby out in a Wisconsin winter with just a diaper!
I thought the plaque was wrong. Just the fact that Faith Newman is alive and to have a grave marker of sorts...bad idea.
What's with Amber's hair??? I'm not a fan of platinum blonde anyway but her's looks like straw.
I hope Chloe was being honest about not loving Billy anymore. I would so hate to see her hurt Chance.
I haven't watched any regular TV shows in a long time. I'm more of a reality show type. Until GLEE. I love, love, LOVE that show!! I resisted it for a long time because I thought it would be too cheezy. It is kind of but in a nice way. The show has made me cry three times. Not that is was sad, but very touching and poignant.

So now we have another new evil character, blond guy, no less.
As I type, I'm listening to Jo Dee Messina singing "I guess I'm doin' all right" One of my weaknesses is a great liking for female country singers. Put on something by Faith Hill, Reba, Deana Carter, Suzy Bogguss, Martina McBride or any other gal and I'm "doin' all right"!
How was that for a great non sequitur? Anyway, about Y&R, HQ and I think recent plot lines have grown more interesting. Hope they keep it up.
Are you guys still eating turkey, like we are? Next week, the rack is going into a big pot to make turkey soup! Yay!

How about we all protest the Adam/Sharon/Baby storyline and see if the writers are listening.....lets all boycott Y&R!!!...................now who are we going to talk about!
Re: Phyllis baby plaque. Yes it is a lovely idea and nice way to remember the baby......but.. 1st. It isn't Phyllis or Nick's place to be nailing such a personal item to the tree. Mostly though.. Faith (Ashley's Faith) has the same name and birth date...How do you think she will feel in a few years seeing her name/death on the tree. Wonder if they will take it down when/if the truth ever comes out or get value for their money by then saying it is in memory of Ashley's real baby!!!
Talking of memorials. I planted a tree for my 18 year old nephew and did some major landscaping last year, moved the tree to a more prominent spot with more growth space. Got up the next morning and it had been stolen overnight - along with all the other new plants I'd spent a week working on. I was so upset I went around the neibourhood looking for it. Found it in a ditch but it was majorly damaged and did not make it. (Think they dropped it because the pine needles were sticking into their thieving hands). Never found any of the other plants. Then at Easter I woke up to see someone had replaced the stolen tree. It was so moving as I had just lost my dad the week before and really brought home the message of Easter - New life. I put up his picture and said why the tree was planted and it has been left alone.
I don't know if the person who took the tree replaced it - or where it came from I just see it everyday and know that there is unexpected goodness around us.

Good greif I can't get warm today....brrrr - Tue Dec 1 18:27:45 MST 2009
This is the past about Deacon - from the "Bold and the Beautiful" web-site. If you want to find out Ambers' past with Deacon -please read on............................................................
Brief Character History
In an eleventh hour move to stop Amber and CJ's wedding in October 2000, Rick tracked down the biological father of "little Eric" in order for him to sign over parental rights to him and Amber. Rick offered Deacon $100,000 for full custody rights to Eric III and he initially agreed. When Deacon faltered, Jonathan initiated a plan for the Forresters to force him into the deal. When Deacon discovered a bug and recording device, he took the papers and left the Forresters empty handed. The Spectras and Forresters started a bidding war for Little Eric. Deacon took the child to live with him and his girlfriend, Carmen, at his apartment above his club, The Lair. Deacon's attraction for Amber soon developed into much deeper feelings of affection. Carmen became suspicious of Amber's constant visits and Deacon's motive for not accepting the $1million offer. Carmen's jealousy intensified one night when she took Little Eric to the rooftop of Deacon's building. Amber confronted Carmen who hesitantly returned Eric to Deacon. The confrontation ensued, there was a struggle and Carmen fell to her death.
When Darryl, Deacon's father, paid Deacon a visit and left him battered and unconscious. Deacon vowed to be a better father than Daryl ever was as he continued to develop feelings for Little Eric. A legal arrangement outside of the Forrester family influence had Amber agree to a four month live-in arrangement with Deacon and Little Eric, at the end of which Deacon would relinquish all parental rights and let Amber walk away with Little Eric. Brooke's interference and convincing photographs of Rick and Amanda kissing at their interstate tennis match drove Amber into Deacons arms. A friendly kiss was interpreted by Rick as a reason to end his engagement to Amber. Deacon organized a surprise getaway for Amber to Las Vegas where they bonded. An encounter with Daryl led to a breakthrough for Deacon in overcoming his childhood demons. Stephanie informed Rick of Brooke's manipulation and searched for Amber. Rick and Amber soon reunited and planned to marry. Amber asked, and Deacon agreed, to sign papers releasing her from the four month agreement but allowing visitation to Little Eric. Eric, Stephanie, Brooke and Thorne visited Deacon at his club. He was furious when Eric boasted about not having to pay the $1million. Deacon ordered them out and promised that they would all pay for the abuse. Deacon soon developed a friendship with Bridget and both were unaware of who the other was until Bridget left Deacon her number revealing her as a Forrester. Deacon came clean and told her his name. Bridget was stunned when she realized who he was but Deacon manipulated her into thinking he cared for her. Before moving ahead with his plan to use Bridget, Deacon tried to get Rick, Brooke and Amber to stop the wedding. When Amber and Rick's wedding began, Eric stood up and asked the minister to stop as he approached Deacon and demanded he leave immediately. Eric and Brooke were mortified when Bridget announced that Deacon was her date!
The guests were asked to leave and Deacon and Amber went to the den to talk while the rest of the Forresters tried to make Bridget see Deacon's true intentions. When Rick, Eric and Brooke entered the den, Deacon forced them to choose between Amber and Bridget stating he would be leaving with one of them. Eric, Ridge and Thorne beat Deacon before throwing him out of the Forrester mansion. Bridget ran after him. In the car, Deacon proposed, they drove to Las Vegas and got married. The Forresters were shocked and appalled when they learned of Bridget's marriage and resolved the situation temporarily by letting the newlyweds stay at Taylor's Beach house without any family interference. When Eric, Brooke and Rick called Deacon on the speaker phone demanding Bridget be sent home, Deacon retaliated by leaving the phone off the hook as he made love to Bridget. The following day, Deacon has hit by a car as he exited Insomnia. At the hospital, Bridget's faith in Deacon was strengthened when he chose not to press charges against the driver who hit him - Eric.
Deacon showed guilt over his actions related to Bridget but felt it was necessary to get Amber and "Little D" back. Bridget was devastated when she overheard Deacon admit to Amber that their marriage was a farce. Bridget confronted Deacon after Amber left and drove off, humiliated. When Deacon followed her, Bridget slammed her foot on the accelerator and lost control of the car. Deacon watched helplessly as she swerved off the road. While Bidget was unconscious and still recovering from surgery, Deacon realized he did have feelings for Bridget. Deacon admitted he didn't realize how important Bridget was to him until the accident occurred and wanted to make their marriage a real one.
Despite hesitation and pressure from her family, Bridget decided to give their marriage a second chance. After Brooke insisted that Amber and Deacon discuss their feelings with one another, the two of them agreed to part ways and make their respective marriages work. Little Eric broke into a fever and brought Amber and Deacon together. They shared a passionate kiss. When Amber learned she was pregnant with Rick's baby, Deacon confessed his love. Deacon went home and told Bridget not to worry about her birth control and fantasized about making love to Amber. Brooke begged Deacon to divorce Bridget. After some faltering, Deacon began to feel that he was holding Bridget back and agreed to leave her. As they discussed stupid things they had done in the name of love, Brooke and Deacon gave in to their attraction for each other and made love.
At Big Bear, Deacon asked Bridget for a divorce. He confessed to her that he slept with someone else, but he still loved her. Bridget stood by her man and gave him another chance. At Tony and Kristen's wedding, Brooke felt ill and a pregnancy test confirmed her condition. Upon learning she was pregnant, Brooke didn't tell anyone and went to a spa while Deacon stayed in LA with his wife. Deacon helped Rick save Brooke's company from being taken over by Ridge. Brooke rewarded Deacon with the job of Head of Promotions at Forrester. After news of Brooke's pregnancy came out, Whip Jones, the man who would have had Deacon's promotion, claimed to be the father and started blackmailing Brooke. Deacon became furious when Whip tried to seduce her away from him. Deacon continued his affair with Brooke off-and-on for months. Brooke couldn't take the guilt and moved to Paris with Whip so she would be able to fight her urge to be with Deacon. Deacon went to Paris after a disturbing phone call from Whip and again slept with Brooke. Feeling so horrible about hurting her daughter again, Brooke accepted a proposal from Whip, assuming her affair with Deacon would end.
Deacon married Macy in 2003, and the two raised Little Eric together. Macy died in a tragic accident not long thereafter, and Deacon was left to raise his son alone. He tried to get his ex-wife, Bridget, back, but she was committed to Oscar Marone. Not long after, Deacon began an affair with Jackie Marone. When Massimo had a stroke, Deacon delighted in tormenting him by telling him about the affair with Jackie, even drugging Jackie with Massimo fully aware. Massimo recovered but Jackie stayed with Deacon. Shortly after Heather Engle came to work for Deacon, he started having the old craving for liquor, not realizing that Heather was in league with Massimo to get revenge on Deacon. After realizing he couldn't stop the thirst, Deacon left Los Angeles to get his life back together, leaving Jackie behind.

i still think sheila might be coming back as new dude's (what's his name?) mother. @debs: i agree that they are spot on with ashley's daughter. she should be a mess. how could she not? there has been no adult support around her during this horrible time in her life. who could survive loosing her dad, sister, step dad betraying, mom going crazy, blah, blah, blah...you know the rest, and not come out crazy. she needs help. and it is too bad that the adults in her life can't imagine how distraught she is and try to step in with compassion.

Fisher was given to Noah when Sharon married Jack by Jack to make the Abbott home feel more like home, I remember Noah locking him in the closet because he was having problems with everyone leaving him (parents divorcing , Cassie dying, Phyllis going to jail, his dad missing when the plane went down. I think Sharon told Noah that Fisher could stay with her at the Abbott home when Noah went to his grandfather's to live and had continued to keep him now that she is at Brad's old home. Noah wanted to name him something like spydog and then The Blonde Avenger (his love for comic book hereos and the fact that the dog was blonde) and then he just asked Jack if he could name him Fisher ( I think because of Gloria living in the pool house at the time he picked up on her last name), Jack said yes as long as he didn't name it Gloria.
Windy and cold in Maine today , some areas got a little snow last night.

Mary W - I think Fisher is the reincarnation of Evil Tom (Fisher)!!!
My first thoughts on Daisy were she was going to be an unknown daughter lauren gave up years ago and she is not back for revenge for being abandoned. - Just because of the bright red head of hair, I think she is more to do with Lauren than anyone else.
I am sick, sick, sick..up to here witht he Adam storyline, barf, barf, barf. It is IMO not entertaining at all, It is sick in a way that puts you off watching. Enough already, get the kid back where she belongs and Adam away from Sharon. OMG she has had nick, nicks stepfather, almost his dad (remember they toyed with that a few years ago), she had her brother in law (Billy) and now Adam her ex husbands (Nick) 1/2 brother, new daughters uncle and ex husband (Jack) partner in crime. Can you imagine just how her son is going to feel with mummy dearest running into the arms of another relative. Yuck!
I love the new stronger Ashley - really sorry she will have the loss of the baby to face........hopefully not 16 years from now. New role of Abbey in turmoil is actually right on the bal. What a family.
Just as disgusting is Jack and Emily - no-one has any scrupels. Like seriously, when he gets her upstairs (as will happen), who is he really taking.........Patti or Dr. P.

Hi, Mary - Sounds like you had a great Thanksgiving! That 37 pound turkey and all the other stuff sounded great. Lots of leftovers for the family huh?
Ladybug - When I read your chat of ii/25 'bout Phyllis' food faux pas, I wondered, like you I guess, why the writers never think of the turkey's exit (from the oven) smelling or looking different? Like, wax from crayons, the various colors in the basting(wouldn't she see it before it's done?) Your point is good.

Weather was foggy when it was supposed to be sunny , but we had a great day. 56 people were at dinner ,the star was the 37 pound turkey, with 3 chickens, 2 pork roasts, 2 hams, all the veggies, rolls, pickles, salads, and so many pies, brownies, cakes (my youngest made her first cheesecake for the occasion, it was yummy!! Pumpkin toffee cheesecake), cookies (my oldest made molasses that were wonderful,Fireman said they tasted like his grams so that was a compliment).
Hope everyone had a wonderful day.

Beautiful day in Alberta, even the cats are lovin' it outside - Thu Nov 26 11:27:30 MST 2009
Happy Thanksgiving, may we all take a moment to think of: those without family or jobs, in poor health, without a home or a meal, those far from home, those that are depressed by the holidays,those abused and those who are no longer with us on this day. May the blessings of the season bring happiness to all, good health, love and understanding as well as peace.

Pinkie and Jean I have always wondered that about gay people too....and this is not to say anything bad about them. I've always wondered, like for example, why is a lesbian attracted to a woman that is very mannish, if, she is in fact attracted to women??
Presentation aside, I thought Adam Lambert's song sucked! IMO I agree with everyone that said that that display had no business being on a "normal" channel during primetime viewing hours. I'll bet everyone has forgotten about Janet Jackson's nipple appearance by now.
Ladybug you are so right about Adam's and Sharon's ages. Adam must have been another SORAS victim, big time, along with Fen--wow blinked and Fen is 10!
Has anyone else noticed Mac has been wearing her hair in the same ponytail for quite a while now? Odd for soaps usually their hair is always different.
I'm having a hard time remembering where the dog Fisher came from, who's dog is it and why he was named Fisher? Anyone?

Like you, LadyBug, I too really liked the idea of GC turning out to the local homeless shelter for Thanksgiving. Kinda softens the ire of Genoa City characters to work together for a good cause.
Speaking of characters, Ok, I can agree that Daisy is not Kate's daughter though maybe could even be her great granddaughter, but the question in my mind remains: who is Ryder talking to on the phone? Who's he answering to? Why is Ryder holding Deacon's son over his head as a bargaining chip? (the latter news is now old, I know).
Oh, and what of this girl that Lauren Fenmore Baldwin doesn't trust? Did she rob Fenmore's store at one time?
Lastly, congrats to Peter Bergman as 'Smilin' Jack Abbot' for 20 years.

Mary: Thanks for clearing up about Nina's other child.
So, Daisy can't be Nina's child. Obviously, she can't be Katherine's daughter, but maybe grand daughter, great grand daughter??? Daisy has to be somebody's kin.
Sooooo....if Sharon knew Hope while Victor was married to her and then Hope had Adam. Wouldn't that make Sharon about 18/20 years older than Adam???
It's cheezy, but I really like the whole homeless shelter Thanksgiving dinner, with everyone showing up to help.

Nina had come from Detroit to GC she was the daughter of Flo a prostitute and an unknown father and wound up with Rose Diville(sp) at a home for pregnant teens (that was actually a black market baby selling operations). Before Nina realized what kind of mess she was in she had the baby and was left on the delivery table as Rose sold her baby. Cricket befriended her and they became roommates and together they attempted to find the baby but had no luck.The baby was a boy not a girl, and we never knew who the dad was.
Nina was 16 when she had the baby and he would probably be two to three years older than Chance so if Chance is 21-23 his half brother would be about 25, isn't that Ryder's age?

The problem with Adam Lambert is that it's so early in his career. You'd think he would want to gradually push the envelope and keep his fans wanting more...like..."What will he do next?" If he does this now....where does he go from here? Any suggestions...LOL? Hopefully...he'll focus on the music and go in a different direction in the theatrics department. He'd be good in the vampire/Twilight mode. Otherwise he'll have to become a singing porn star in order to outdo himself. Still...can't help but love him.
How is it possible that Phyllis stuffed the turkey and didn't notice there were crayons in the stuffing???? I have thrown out whole batches of food because I noticed a tiny hair or ant. Wouldn't she have noticed it while basteing....or smelled it??? Even if there are crayons in the stuffing, couldn't you still eat the white meat? I know...why ask why...especially since we have to believe that the multi-millionaire siblings are having Thanksgiving dinner in a tack house.
How old would Nina's daughter be? I can't remember the history but I think she was born before Chance???

I have asked my brother the same question why oh why do the Gay Guys dress or act like woman and the Lesbians dress & act like guys. he cant answer it either , and Yes i have seen couples the ones that dress very classy and there is no doubt that they can really decorate a home . ,I'm just upset that when all is said and done we are not the same ,and I'm sure if we were all asked what do we shudder at more? a woman to woman kiss ?or man to man? the later will be frowned on that I'm sure of ...Dont mean to offend anyone who may be Gay that is reading this . Because of Adam Lambert he made it a topic of conversation .

Y&R - just say the last 5 minutes. Yes, it was sad to see Jack there eating alone.
RC - so glad you read my post....no need to say you're sorry....just testing you. LOL
Pinkie - I have gay friends. They do not display affection, and look very preppy dress wise. But I know exactly what you mean about the gay pride parades and the gay bars. Plus I've seen drag gueen shows. (Won't go there describing the old "bath houses" they used to have before aids). Seen it all. My question is why, if they can't stand women, do they want to be "nelly" and dress like a woman????? I just don't get it, and even my gay friends can't really tell me. Hmmmmm
Lady bug - I too think there is a very double standard when women can act up on stage, but men can't.
Okay, I'm done.
Later - you all have a wonderful Thankgiving, and my north of the border friends. Happy "super bowl"

GNikki Can we call you just Nikki? If you look at the top of the page you will See the Virtual Cookbook and then you will see all of the recipes we have posted ...
I'm a traditional Cooker for Thanksgiving ,
re Y&R
Oh Surprise Surprise the Turkey is ruined .BooHoo,
I was waiting for Victor to walk in the door with a Turkey to save the day for Phylass.
I also felt sad for Jack being alone and I'm also glad that Billy Boy is alone and being used and tossed away.. (I still like him and think he is a good actor)
Catherine's Daughter has to be as Old as Jill and wouldn't it be great If they brought back Nina's child . she would not be so clingy of Chance,,Clingy is the wrong word Protective is better,
just a quick update on Mr p.. he has a rough time with his breathing he has been on antibiotics 3 times since Sept he is feeling better this week .So That's a good thing ..
As for Adam Lambert
crude , rude and down right vulgar. and not because he is Gay . Oh and his singing was horrible . why do Gay people have to push our buttons ? If your Gay OK fine be Gay don't force it on me with your Vulgar displays The Gay pride parade is leather clad or barley clad men doing all kinds of bad things and I know first hand they have there own campgrounds with alot of swapping going on the Couples that are monogamous are few not as many as you think. when you go into their clubs its nothing like a straight club ,They have back rooms and Porn is usually playing .If this is what they call wanting to be treated like us well None of my friends or Family do that .EXCEPT my Brother and his Friends and every friend that they have .. Iwalked into 3 of their bars/ clubs and they are just as i described . So what I'm saying is Be Gay I don't care But most of all I dont want to see it... JMHO..

You're right gnikki, I think the only thing Phyllis can do is bicker about everyone else around her.
Though Billy's comment about Jack's hypocrisy was, I guess, true, it was still a sad sight seeing Jack eating at a large set table by himself.
Is Daisy the long lost daughter of Catherine? Even if not, how is she the half-sister of Ryder? There's just so many holes in this Y&R it's hard sometimes to fiqure out. Unless I'm not paying attention. But who the heck is Ryder, and who was he talking to on the phone? Daisy?
Happy Thanksgiving to one and all (even if the turkey burns-lol!)

i make cornbread and then use it to make the dressing in the pan along with "seasonings" (as my grandmother used to say)such as garlic, bell peppers, sweet onions, celery, rosemary, thyme, turkey or chicken stock, a little red pepper and lawry's seasoning salt.
but i know many people stuff the turkey.
the nina/paul kiss was funny. and i love that phyllis can't cook.
"families don't love, they lie, abandon and die," -that about sums it up for miss "asley's daughter" (i can't think of her name).

Jean : In response, I must've overlooked yours. Sorry. I wanted just to make a statement. Any yes, in response to Ladybug, Madonna was a wild one on stage, and I think she did play both sides. So Lambert's statement is, I guess, justified. I just didn't like his presentation.

nurse connie, how about sharing your "awesome" dressing recipe? HQ just told me that SHE makes awesome dressing! I sense a competition looming. Anyway, would be nice if you'd post it.
That teaser when they wanted us to believe Adam was about to spill the beans is something they like to do to make sure we tune in, I guess, but we find it very annoying. Hell, there's so much we find annoying that this is just one more. But we'll be watching until either Y&R dies, or we do!
HQ always makes a completely traditional dinner and we have 2 sons with us, one of whom completely decorates the outside of the house for Christmas before he goes home. Someday he's going to blow all our fuses!
HAPPT THANSKGIVING, ONE AND ALL!

So Ryder and Daisy are half-brother and sister, or what is the connection?
What's with the exploding women of Y & R? Eden looks about 8 months pregnant and Jena, 5.
Why does Y & R always set Sharon up as a victim to spiral out of control? She gets attached to Adam only to find out at some point the ultimate betrayal?
Nice work by Y & R to give us a glimpse of what new couples might be like: Ashley and Nick; JT and Mackenzie; Paul and Nina.
Finally cute kids with personality. Tracey Bregman had mentioned on her Facebook page that she loves the New Fen. And can't get enough of Delia.
Last word on Adam Lambert (who is a great talent): Whether he is male, female, straight or gay, or what his moral standards are, is irrelevant. He can do what he wants in his concerts as Madonna has done for years. People pay up front and know what they are getting. But when I am viewing a public television awards show with no "adult content" warning, as are my children, I take offence to having what I consider inappropriate content thrown in my face. There is no opportunity to turn off the TV beforehand.

gnikki - to me cornbread dressing and stuffing are the same...I use old cornbread (Pepperidge makes it too) crushed crackers (saltines) and stale bread, toast, biscuits what ever I've saved from past week or so...I cook from the hip...sorta by recipe and sorta what I remember what mom and my aunt did.
NOW sex in the pan is a wonderful cake made lots of different ways...there is one in the recipes site on here by Joanie....mine was different made with chocolate etc...is awesome...
Some Thanksgiving show...but no big suprises...think I'll go wash clothes...lololol

billy is right; jack is being a hypocrit. he has been as bad, if not worse than billy and he still expects his famly to be there for him. i think they need to give billy a break. and, of course sort out the baby situation.
my favorite thanksgiving dish is dressing. do you guys have cornbread dressing, or stuffing?
and what is sex in a pan? i think i need the recipe for that one.

Admittedly, I did not see Adam Lambert's performance. But, did see him defend himself saying it was a double standard. I kind of agree, Madonna has simulated oral sex and has done other rauchy things. She kissed Britney on an awards show. Is it that he's gay or a man? Not having watched any music award shows....how many are there? I love music but never listen to the radio so don't know what's current, prefer the old stuff. Music fans: Seems that Taylor Swift is getting all the awards. Does she deserve them or.....???
Y&R...when it looks like Adam is going to tell Sharon, they are just teasing us. He'll never tell. I knew yesterday that he was only going to tell her how much he wuvs about her.
It was a beautiful scene to finally see Billy get treated the same way he treats women. Just for sex and move on. Loved when she gave Liam a fake name.
Fireman: Love, love, love Thanksgiving dinner...all of it. Even as left-overs. It's the ultimate comfort food. But I have to say stuffing is my favorite. I like it plain and simple, no raisins, chestnuts, prunes, apples, etc...God forbid... NO oysters!

JEAN: To answer your question, no I missed that Awards, but have sure heard lots about the fallout. Wow, simulated oral sex? But you know what, in the Entertainment industry, whether it's movies, TV, music, every year the boundaries get pushed further and further. So I'm not really surprised anymore at what I see and hear, but sad, as what our kids are exposed to now at such young ages is just not right.
FIREMAN: Re Thanksgiving, I can't even offer you a traditional Canadian dish! We are just plain old turkey and stuffing people and other than that I make my family's individual favorites, which really are quite dull. For dessert they always ask for Sex-in-a-Pan which is probably common to you, too. Hmmm, do I need to explain that sentence????
You asked for opinions on the same topic, RC, so read above.

Oh, yes, What did you all think of Lambert's stage show last night? I think it was too raunchy for TV, and a bit decadent. Reminded me of that play about 1930's Germany (the name escapes me).
Thought it great that Taylor Swift won Entertainer of the year and best female singer for CMA. I like her writing style; her lyrical, storytelling style seems better than the repetitive, versive (sung verse by verse,) that I'm so used to singing myself. Songs that tell stories intrigue me (that's why I also like Billy Joel and some Bob Dylan).

HI, everyone!
Well, I'm sure you all know...possibilities of the Abbots working with the Newmans bit the dust. All trust is lost. Poor Jack.
What was really good was seeing Billy Boy gitting snowed by that columnist from New York. Taste of his own medicine, huh? The liar getting lied to, and falling for it! Maybe he was thinking with his fly.
Wasn't it neat seeing Murphy and Kate run upstairs for a little....y'know?
Lastly, Adam I thought was about to spill the beans on the baby switch, and then...SMOOTCH! He kisses Sharon with the passion of a seaman! Were you all shocked too?

The word is 'insensitive' (not
